Cisco Cisco OptoStar II Reverse Receivers Installationsanleitung
Introduction
Description
The OptoStar II forward driver amplifier module uses a standard 19-in OptoStar
II chassis. The flexibility of the platform is greatly improved by the fact that a
single chassis can hold other OptoStar II modules. A standard 3RU OptoStar II
Chassis can accommodate 14 forward driver amplifier modules or other
application modules. Through different combinations of modules, it provides
solutions to various value-added applications, and enhances network flexibility.
The forward driver amplifier module provides signal amplification function. It is
a part of the headend or sub-headend RF network. The built-in variable
attenuation and variable equalization functions guarantee optimum signal.
