Proprietary Information
Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier
Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifieris a device that amplifies an optical signal directly, without the need to first convert it to an electrical signal
EDFA operates on the C-band,
from 1525 nm - 1565 nm.
Foxcom offers a wide range of
EDFA’s, with various power
outputs, and Single or Bi-
directional traffic
EDFA, Bi-directional, 1RU, Pre-amp + Booster
PN: 82-22/22-01-BD (Booster 22dBm 16dB Gain and booster 22dBm 16dB Gain )
PN: 82-22/22-02-BD (Booster 22dBm 8dB Gain and booster 22dBm 8dB Gain)
Product Features:
1. Fully managed bi-directional FG EDFA in 1RU
2. State of the art transient suppression
3. Dual redundant 110/220V or -48VDC power supplies
4. SNMP v2 or v3 and Web-based GUI
5. Class 1M* laser safety classification
6. RU rack-mountable packaging
• Mirror sites
• No down-time
• Immediate Switch-Over
• Auto or Manual
• Threshold adjustment
Advantages of Redundancy
• Ability to mirror all analog TX and RX satellite RF signals from the
customer’s main Teleport site to a remote diversity backup site
• Foxcom’s EDFA units are optimized for DWDM signals and enable SNMP
control from the main teleport site over fiber
• press of a button, all satellite signals were transferred to the mirror site
• satellite can automatically switch traffic services to backup station
GPSDO
Transfer low CNR GPS signal to each receiver and within each receiver a GPSDO Oven controlled oscillator.
Advantages - simple low cost transmitter with ability to split multiple time easily, signal keeps pumping out of the receivers even when fiber is disconnected, Local GPS output on each receiver.

The Solution
Foxcom’s pioneering RF over Fiber
solution is a cost effective alternative
to coax cable. It provides seamless
indoor coverage by connecting
passive outdoor antennas with indoor
repeaters, modems and handsets.
The fiber link enables Iridium satellite
handset users to make multiple and
concurrent calls within any size
building or underground facility.
Bi-directional L-band signals are
converted into optics indoors and
outdoors allowing for antenna
extension of more 6 km.

Indoor Optical Unit
Foxcom’s Optical Repeater works by receiving
satellite signals over fiber from outdoor antenna .
This allows for testing and troubleshooting on the
aircraft without the need to move it outside.
• Save Fuel – No need to start up the jet
• Save Time – Test the aircraft at any time
• Save Manpower – No need to call in additional
personnel to move the aircraft
• Save on Utilities – Minimize heating and cooling
costs
• Improve Operational Readiness– Air force
bases need to be on alert and ready 24/7
