Optical Zonu provides many types of solutions to compliment and expand indoor and outdoor cellular Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS). Analog RF over fiber systems are available for all major cellular carriers, Public Safety and FirstNet, Wi-Fi and ISM wireless protocols, as well as LMR and other handheld radio communications.
- Minimizing Equipment – Extremely dense links provide up to 3 MIMO bi-directional paths over a single fiber
- Any Cellular Band including PCS AWS CBRS for LTE 4G and 5G.
- 24/7 Access – Simple Remote monitoring and control GUI provides 24/7 monitoring and alarms to guarantee uptime
- Highest Spectral Efficiency – ZONUConnect provides a remote base station connection solution that cannot be matched by any other approach.
- Minimum Commissioning Time – the simplicity of ZONUConnect means that even the largest systems can be deployed and commissioned in less than a day.
- Automatic discovery and gain setting for commissioning
- Full GUI, SNMP and RESTful APIs. See ManagedRFoF
- Guaranteed Transparent Operation – The simple set up procedures ensure that ZONUConnect provides a noiseless connection for any base station and DAS configuration.
- Proven Track record for very large installations (e.g. major airport (all terminals, parking and service areas) for all 3 carriers including private netwrork
Wireless coverage problems for Small and mid-size venues can be solved easily with an off-air antenna, bi-directional amplifier (BDA) or RF booster feeding indoor antennas. The required location for the donor antenna (off-air is outdoors) is often too far away for coaxial cable to be practical. RF over Fiber is a RF transport system over fiber that has superior performance compared to coax cables for the wireless frequencies and is widely used for antenna remoting.
Optical Zonu’s Antenna Extender provides an easy-to-install RF over Fiber optic link between the outdoor donor antenna and BDA. Since the antennas are bi-directional special electronics was developed and built to protect against crosstalk between the upstream and downstream RF traffic.
The link consists of a compact Antenna Unit that connects to the donor antenna and a mechanically identical Equipment Unit that connects to the BDA. The two units are connected by a single strand of optical fiber to provide a robust RF connection for distances of 3,000 ft. and more. The units require no adjustments and can be powered locally or remotely (via hybrid fiber copper cable).
