The Compact EGC Fiber Deep Node (FDN) is a small node designed to meet the
growing need for network segmentation. It provides advanced features and benefits at an
attractive price point, helps operators reduce operating costs by streamlining node
segmentation deployments and configuration, and is well suited for migration toward
FTTC/FTTB architectures.
growing need for network segmentation. It provides advanced features and benefits at an
attractive price point, helps operators reduce operating costs by streamlining node
segmentation deployments and configuration, and is well suited for migration toward
FTTC/FTTB architectures.
The node can operate at an output level of 57 dBmV in the forward path, and can be
configured electronically for quick initial setup, or for adjustments that are needed as
network requirements shift. All settings can be done without interrupting service, an
especially important capability in networks that are delivering interactive services such as
Voice over IP (VoIP) and high-speed data. The node is equipped with an interface that
allows for configuration through a handheld programmer terminal or by connection to a
standard PC. This interface allows the settings to be stored and reapplied to streamline
configuration.

The node’s large optical input range and high RF output level allow for use with a large
variety of reverse transmitters to support a variety of applications within the network.

The number of plug-ins has been minimized to help operators keep inventory and costs
down. The full-range electronic attenuators and equalizers offer improved versatility, and
make it possible to achieve the same adjustment range as with conventional plug-ins or
potentiometer solutions. A plug-in diplexer filter is used to determine the forward/reverse
band split.

To meet future demands for more bandwidth, the node offers an electronic 862 MHz to 1
GHz field-programmable bandwidth extension, and the reverse path that can be
upgraded to 200 MHz.

The Compact EGC FDN Model A90100 can be configured with a Cisco status monitoring
transponder (SMC or HMS) to enable remote monitoring of critical node parameters and
remote control of the built-in 3-state reverse switch. All node settings are remotely
addressable via ROSA
