backup optical input. The OTOHP-FRX receiver is designed to operate with Olson
Technology’s OHP ( ptical eadend latform) series of products. Internal RF
OH P
attenuators can be used in manual orAGC mode to adjust the RF output over a 20dB
range. The OTOHP-FRX provides +35dBmV per channel output level. The front panel
controls allow local management and monitoring of the module while the RS-485
interface and the OTOHP-NMS network management module allow remote
management and monitoring ofthemodule.
