RON1500B RFoG ONU

ACT 1 GHz RON1500B Series RFoG Node is a cost-effective, high-performance optical network unit designed and optimized for standards-compliant RFoG Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) networks. By deploying RFoG ONUs, cable operators can preserve their existing infrastructure investment while continuing to deliver Internet and telephony services via DOCSIS-compliant cable modems, alongside Video-on-Demand systems. The RON1500 optical node forms part of ACT’s comprehensive FTTx solution suite. It supports 1550 nm forward-path RF signals and return-path upstream signals at various CWDM wavelengths in a 1×32 split FTTH topology. The unit integrates a low-noise optical receiver and an isolated DFB optical laser to modulate upstream signals from set-top boxes (STBs) or DOCSIS modems back onto the fiber. An optional PON upgrade port further enhances flexibility by combining upstream and downstream signals across a 1310/1490 nm EPON/GPON network—providing MSOs with a smooth migration path from traditional HFC systems to next-generation PON-based FTTH networks.

·       Laser control circuit features a unique, reliable, and stable design

·       Excellent AGC ensures consistent output level in range of -7 to +2 dBm

·       Optimized circuit design and SMT process enhance signal path stability and improve RF linearity

·       Professional RF attenuator circuit offers precise, linear attenuation

·       GaAs amplifier provides high reliability, low distortion, and superior performance

·       Return path control uses optional burst mode to significantly reduce noise collection

·       Aluminum die-cast shell ensures effective cooling and an attractive appearance
