Foxcom Sat-Light Gold Fiber IFL System
3RU & 1RU Chassis, Outdoor Systems, Multiple Card Options and frequency options for a wide variety of IFL applications
Sat-Light Gold Fiber IFL System
Foxcom provides both indoor and outdoor housings for the Gold Series of Fiber Optic Interfacility Links. The indoor 19” 3RU chassis has 8 slots for any combination of transmit and receive cards. All cards are hot swappable and are powered by single or dual switching power supply units.
Foxcom’s 4000 Series outdoor enclosure (ODU) provides
weatherproof protection for all Gold Series transmitters and receivers.
Up to 4 Sat-Light/Gold cards can be housed in the ODU eliminating
the need for environment controlled shelters.
The Sat-Light IFLs function as a transparent link between the satellite
antenna, Network Operations Center (NOC), control room, or field
operations centers. System limitations using coaxial cable are
overcome by the superior performance of fiberoptic transport.
When configured with transmitters in a downlink application both
satellite polarities can be accommodated. In an uplink configuration an
ODU mounted near the antenna, holding several receivers, can feed a
standalone up-converter, block converter (BUC), or transceiver. The
series 4003 ODU can also be configured as a transceiver for VSAT
applications. The unit includes an integrated power supply.
Foxcom Gold Series Indoor and Outdoor chassis's house the following hot swappable cards:

Foxcom Sat-Light/Gold Wideband Optical Link Datasheet
Foxcom's Sat-Light/Gold L-Band Interfacility Link offers a high performance, cost effective alternative to conventional coaxial-cabled systems. The Gold L-Band IFL covers the range of 950 to 2200MHz. The Gold Series L-Band link is designed for a wide range of satellite power levels. Foxcom’s high dynamic range DFB laser delivers exceptional signal quality for the most demanding applications.
The new Gold series is compatible with first generation Sat-Light 7000 Series platform. The Gold Series support L-Band, 70/140MHz IF, Wide Band (10-2200 MHz), 10MHz Reference, Redundancy, M & C, SNMP, Ethernet, and Serial Data Communication.
The link consists of an optical transmitter, which receives the RF signal from an LNB or LNA, and an optical receiver that connects to the indoor receiver equipment. All satellite modulation schemes are accommodated –digital or analog. Inherently low phase is achieved by direct modulation of the laser diode. GL7220 Datasheet
