Cisco Prisma II 1310 nm 1.2 GHz Transmitters - 733672

Description

The Cisco^® Prisma^® II line of optical network transmission products is an advanced system designed to help optimize network architecture and increase reliability, scalability, and cost-effectiveness. The 1310 nm high-density transmitters (HDTx) are designed for use in the standard^[*] Prisma II or the Prisma II XD chassis (Figure 1) containing standard power supplies and fan trays. The ability to mix high-density transmitter modules with other Prisma II modules in the same chassis greatly enhances the flexibility of the platform. Up to 26 transmitters can operate in a standard 6-rack-unit (6RU) Prisma II chassis, effectively doubling the density for 1310 nm transmitters in that chassis. Up to 16 HDTx modules fit in the Prisma II XD chassis for even higher density. The transmitters have a 1.2 GHz passband to permit the inclusion of high-order modulation types consistent with DOCSIS^® 3.1 advances. Microprocessor control allows ease of installation and flexibility of application. The transmitters are offered in two performance levels and a range of output powers from 3 to 15 dBm.

The Prisma II high-density platform includes the following modules:

●   Premium 1310 nm high-density transmitters: The premium 1310 nm HDTx offers superior performance for either high-power hybrid fiber-coax (HFC) applications or forward path segmentation. Transmitters are offered with output power from 4 to 15 dBm and deliver both analog and digital signals.

●   Standard 1310 nm high-density transmitters: The standard HDTx offers a cost-effective solution for forward path segmentation. Transmitters are offered with output power from 3 to 12 dBm and deliver both analog and digital signals.

●   High-density host module: The host module is designed to double the density of the standard Prisma II chassis. It provides two slots for the high-density modules for each current Prisma II slot (Figure 2). The simple design provides an efficient route of RF and electrical signal between the backplane and the high-density module.

Specifications

Table 1.       Specifications

Note:    Digital channels only; level must be set such that digital channels are 6 dB below analog channels in the composite RF signal. Narrowcast input shall require an input signal to be 6 dB greater per channel than an identical such signal applied to the broadcast input in order to produce the identical OMI on the output.

Link Performance Specifications

Table 2.       Premium and Standard HDTx

Digital channels: MER > 38 dB; Pre-FEC BER < 1x10^-8 for 256 QAM

Note:     

1.     At specified RF input level and 0 dBm optical input to a compatible GS7000 or GainMaker receiver

2.     RF levels shown are required when operated with transmitter AGC off.

3.     Optical link budget includes 3.5 dB of non-dispersive loss.

4.     Pre-FEC BER is for ITU-T J.83 Annex B 256-QAM modulation, 79 NTSC in CW mode, 10-minute test duration with averaged BER.

5.     Temperature is specified at air inlet to Prisma II chassis.
