F-tone Networksprovides wideband fiber optic analog transmitter and receiver module that achieves high performance photoelectric conversion. They also offer long haul transmission of the complete solution.
F-tone Networksmade it to the highest performance as a cost-effective alternative to coaxial cable or a long transmission distance microwave signal repeater.
Typical applications include military phase array antenna, satellite communications, space measurement, wireless base station and other microwave related system.
Absolute maximum rating
These values represent the damage threshold of the module. Stress in excess of any of the individual Absolute Maximum Ratings can cause immediate catastrophic damage to the module even if all other parameters are within Recommended Operating Conditions.
