ONU RFoG Mini Node – With Automated OBI Mitigation

The Maxcom MX700AC-AT series with Continuum Wave Shifting Technology. ONU mini nodes offer enhanced features such OBI mitigation for effectively reducing the likelihood of OBI, AGC (Automatic Gain Control), with optional PON ports to support GPON, EPON, xPON services. Maxcom offers highly reliable RFoG solutions.

  1. General Details

    The Maxcom MX700-3AC-AT series ONU’s provide excellent Automated OBI Mitigation incorporating Continuum Wave Shifting Technology. The Maxcom MX700-3 OBI series ONU’s are ideal for use in Residential or MDU or fiber to the business applications. An excellent platform for delivering upstream and downstream DOCSIS, voice, video, and high-speed data service over FTTX applications. They are designed compliant to industry standards to terminate an RF over Glass (RFoG) communications network. The standard model uses a single fiber and receives downstream signals at 1550nm and uses a 1610nm range Continuum Wave Shifting DFB return transmitter. Maxcom Continuum Wave Shifting Technology automatically and continually adjust the agile DFB Laser allowing multiple RFOG ONU’s to share a single receiver, a tested and simple solution in OBI mitigation. OBI occurs when two or more customers are transmitting on the same wavelength at the same time. By deploying the Maxcom Continuum Wave Shifting Technology, OBI is mitigated automatically without the need to place additional equipment in the field or headend. Works with all existing RFoG deployments regardless of brand. Built with maximum toughness and the best warranty in its class.
