Optiva OTS-2 Ka-Band RF Fiber Optic Links DATASHEET | APRIL 2015 SATCOM The Optiva OTS-2 Ka-Band transmitter and receiver are ideal to construct downlink 18.300 to 21.200 GHz and uplink 28.350 to 31.000 GHz transparent fiber optic links for antenna remoting, electronic warfare systems, broadband delay lines, signal processing systems and other high-dynamic-range applications. Optiva satellite and microwave transmitters and receivers are SNMP compliant. They can be housed in the same chassis and monitored by the same Network Management System (NMS) as Optiva HD video, audio, serial data, and USB extension / distribution cards to provide multiple format and frequency Applications Satcom Ka-Band Antenna Signal Distribution Ground Terminal & Intra-Facility Links Site Diversity Systems Electronic Warfare (EW) Systems Broadband Delay Line and Signal Processing Systems Features / Benefits Ka-Band Uplink and Downlink - Eliminates the performance and cost penalty of block up/ down conversion Low RIN Source Laser - Provides highdynamic-range of >102 dB Hz2/3 Microprocessor-Based Transmitter Control for Laser Bias, Modulator Bias & Link Gain - Provides consistent high performance operation and allows for modulator low-bias operation and SFDR >102 dB Hz2/3 SNMP V.1 and RS-232 Monitor & Control Interface - Flexible user interface options Compatible with EMCORE’s Modular Optiva Platform - Allows multiple format and frequency transport in a single chassis DWDM Operation - Increases transport capacity without increasing fiber count transport in a single flexible platform. System Design The Optiva platform includes a wide range fiber optic transport products for satellite and microwave communications from 1 MHz to 40 GHz. These units can be used to construct transparent inter- and intra-facility links from 1 meter to >100 km for RF and microwave signal transport, antenna remoting, video transport, electronic warfare systems and other high-dynamic-range applications. Optiva is a completely modular, hot-swappable platform. Both 19” rack-mount and compact tabletop, or wall-mountable enclosures are available. The 3 RU 19” rack-mount, fan-cooled enclosures (Model OT-CC-16 and OT-CC-16F) can support up to 16 insert cards and utilize two dual-redundant, hot-swappable, 100 or 200 watt power supplies. The 1 RU 19” rack-mount, fan-cooled enclosure (Model: OTCC-6-1U) can accommodate 6 insert cards and utilizes two hot-swappable 60 watt power supplies. Compact one-slot (OT-DTCR-1), or two-slot (OT-DTCR-2) enclosures are also available that use an external wall-mount power supply.
