RF Optic 4.0GHz RF Over Fiber

RF Optic’s palm size analog RFoF modules that support up to 4.0 GHz are used to convert RF signals to optical signals to carry over long distances. The Tx unit using an optical transmitter, converts RF to Optical signal and the Rx unit converts back to RF signal. The two units are connected through customer’s single mode fiber.
