PICO MACOM
PMN-1
he Pico Macom model PMN-1 is a compact, cost-effective and fully featured indoor optical node specifically designed
for the delivery of analog and digital video, high-speed data and telephony signals into homes. This unit has diverse ap-
T
plications in MDU, industrial, government and educational institutions for the delivery of current and future broadband
CATV services. The fiber core employed in the unit design is a 1310/1550 nm optical receiver with a wide optical input
window of -6 to 3dBm. The PMN-1 has an integrated optical attenuator and equalizer and a precision LED to indicate received optical power. The power is provided through coaxial cable (line) or an external wall mount power adaptor. The unit
employs GaAs amplifier technology for excellent broadband RF performance and spurious-free RF output.
Mini-Indoor Optical Node
Features
• Compact, 5˝ x 3˝ x 1.3˝ precision aluminum
die-cast case guarantees excellent mechanical
integrity, ease of installation and shielding
effectiveness.
• Bi-directional operation with forward bandwidth
from 54~1000MHz (analog and digital) and re-
verse bandwidth from 5~42MHz.
• Wide optical input range (-6dBm to 3dBm)
provides excellent operation at low optical
input levels.
• Full 25dBmV typical RF output for superior C/N
performance.
• Return loss guarantees excellent impedance match
across the frequency band with minimal reflection
and cross coupling between ports.
• Optical power monitoring for optimal optical
input and output power range indication.
• Calibrated 1V/mW optical input test point for
signal monitoring.
• 12Vdc line powered with a wall mounted 20/240Vac
wall adaptor. Integrated high linearit optical receiver
and transmitter for two-way operation.
