Fiber Inter-Facility Links Future Proof Satellite Ground Station Networks

2015-11-25 14:50:11| rfglobalnet Downloads

The development of high throughput satellites operating over Ku and Ka-band frequencies has increased the need for upgrading ground station inter-facility links (IFLs). RF transmissions are traditionally handled by copper coaxial cables, but they are no longer suitable due to their excessive size and restricted bandwidth. ETL Systems offers a new series of RF over fibre IFLs designed to deliver high quality RF signals across long distances with minimal loss.
