Three transmitter RF operating bandwidths are available: 0.05 – 18, 0.05 – 22 and 0.05 – 40 GHz. Two receiver RF operating bands are available: 0.05 – 22 and 0.05 – 40 GHz. In addition, the units are DC-coupled, so they will pass RF frequencies down to 10 kHz. Two optical output power ranges of 7-9 dBm or 10-12 dBm are available for each transmitter band. The SITU-SIRU series modules are fully integrated units that contain both the optics and the control electronics. Only DC input voltages, fiber optic and the RF signal are required for operation. The units can be used to construct transparent links for antenna remoting. The broad bandwidth is intended for applications such as electronic warfare and KuBand systems. Other applications include delay lines and signal processing systems. The system operates at a nominal wavelength of 1550 nm. Wavelength selected transmitter lasers on the ITU grid are also available to support multi-channel DWDM applications.

SITU-SIRU Series Externally-Modulated Transmitters & Receivers DATASHEET | NOVEMBER 2013 MICROWAVE SITU-Series Transmitter Reference Block Diagram The SITU-Series transmitter control circuits provides a “slow ramp” to the bias current of the high-power DFB source laser to limit the optical output power of the DFB laser and the transmitter throughout the initialization process. During initialization, it is possible for the transmitter optical output power to briefly exceed the maximum rated value by as much as 3 dB, creating the potential to exceeed the optical power limit of the receiver photodiode and damage the recevier. Once the transmitter has completed the optimization process, the DFB laser bias ramp circuit set the laser bias current to the correct value to provide the specified transmitter optical output power.
