DOCSIS and DAVIC data.
DOCSIS and DAVIC data.
At the node, one or two analog reverse path signals occupying the 5 - 85 MHz
reverse band spectrum are sampled by an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). A
high-speed serial data stream is constructed by scrambling and framing the data.
This data stream is carried optically over fiber to a remote hub or headend, where
the receiver detects the optical signal and converts it back to a serial electrical signal.
The data is unpacked and sent to a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), which
reconstructs the originally transmitted analog spectrum.

CAUTION:
The QEDR receiver is designed to work exclusively with EDR transmitters as
part of the Cisco EDR system. Results with other transmitters are not
guaranteed. Do not install Cisco EDR transmitters in any daisy chain with one
or more Cisco QEDR receivers.

Receiver Description
The receiver module contains four separate optoelectronic receiver circuits. Optical
input is through an OPM connector mounted on the front of the module. The RF
output is through two connectors on the rear of the module.
input is through an OPM connector mounted on the front of the module. The RF
output is through two connectors on the rear of the module.
Each RF output can be attenuated by as much as 10 dB, relative to no attenuation, in
0.5 dB increments. The actual RF output levels of the receiver, attenuated by 20 dB,
can be monitored at a selectable test point on the front panel.

can be monitored at a selectable test point on the front panel.
The receiver supports 2.5 GHz and 5 GHz configurations in an XD form factor for
both Prisma II (using Host Module) and Prisma XD Chassis. The OPM optical input
uses a dual LC/PC connector and supports all standard reverse bandwidths: 40, 42,
55, 65, and 85 MHz.

The receiver can be operated in any of the following operating modes:
1:1 Input, One RF Output, One OPM
