OPTICAL TO RF ADAPTOR
CV-100
1 GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 Description
The CV-100 is an optical to RF signal adaptor that allows
TV Analysers and Satellite with optical links. This adaptor
covers the full RF band for FI satellite, terrestrial and CATV. It
includes a DC power output to provide power to the optical
LNB of the satellite antenna. It also has a 20 dB RF attenuator
selectable. It is an ideal complement to the installer that
already has a field meter, as the TV EXPLORER, allowing use
in fibre optic installations without needing other instruments
