The EMCORE Optiva OTS-2 Series Satcom Band Fiber Optic Links are a family of SNMP managed fiber optic transmitters and receivers that provide high-performance downlink and uplink transport within the modular Optiva platform. C, X, DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite), Ku- and Ka-Band modules are available. The units can be used to construct transparent fiber optic links for satcom band antenna signal distribution, ground terminal & intra-facility links, electronic warfare systems, broadband delay lines, signal processing systems and other high-dynamic-range applications.
Optiva satcom band modules utilize EMCORE’s high-performance ultra-low Relative Intensity Noise (RIN) source laser technology with high optical input power capable photodiodes, and feature microprocessor-based transmitter and receiver control for laser and modulator bias. Satcom band modules also come with variable RF gain to provide consistent microwave link operations.
