OPTIX Series 3
Fiber Optic Remote Antenna Distribution System
OPTIX is a low noise RF to ber optic (RFoF) conversion
system designed to facilitate the remote placement of
wireless audio antennas. It converts radio frequency
energy arriving from an antenna source into an optical
signal, sends that signal down a length of ber-optic
cable, and converts the signal back into RF.
