Receiver Description 
Receiver Overview 
The EDR Receiver is a plug-in module for the Prisma II and Prisma II XD platforms. 
These modules are part of the Prisma II optical network, an advanced transmission 
system designed to optimize network architectures and increase reliability, 
scalability, and cost-effectiveness. 
The receiver module installs into a Prisma II XD Chassis directly, or into a standard 
Prisma II Chassis by means of a host module that accepts up to two Prisma II High 
Density application modules. 
The receiver front panel contains an optical pluggable module (OPM) connector that 
provides inputs for two separate optical receiver circuits. A single test point is 
selectable between the two receiver outputs for RF output verification. 
All connectors are easily accessible. ALARM and Power ON indicators on the front 
panel allow you to monitor power and alarm status at a glance.

 
Blind-mate radio frequency (RF) connections on module back panel 
 
Receiver Operation 
The Cisco EDR system is a set of long-haul transport products for CATV reverse 
path applications. The system is designed to transport analog reverse path spectra 
from node to hub or headend over optical fiber. Reverse path signals are typically 
DOCSIS and DAVIC data. 
At the node, one or two analog reverse path signals occupying the 5 - 85 MHz
