Fiber Optic Signal Converter
Converts Reference Signals from Copper and Fiber
The NF0100 converts 10 MHz sine reference signals to multi or single mode 1300 nm fiber optic. The device is also available to convert the fiber optic signal back to a sine or square wave. The 1 x 1 x 3 inch unit connects in line with a BNC cable and connects directly to either single mode or multi-mode 1300 nm fiber optic. A pair of NF0100, properly configured, can add a fiber optic channel to solve an electron magnetic interference problem or a long-distance reference need. For the most demanding applications, the NF0100-LN converts fiber to copper with the phase noise performance one expects in a copper carrier (see phase noise plot).
