Fiber Delay Spools
- Our fiber spools are used to create delays from tens of nanoseconds up to hundreds of microseconds
- Optional integrated DCF (Dispersion Control Fiber) if required
- Our engineers can assist you in spec’ing the appropriate delay line and RFoF transceiver in designing a delay line solution
- Pass through connector option to eliminate the need for patch cables and reduce optical loss
- Delay accuracy of <0.1% or better
- Custom connectors: FC, SC, LC, ST and APC/UPC type
- 1 km of single mode fiber provides approximately 5 uS delay
Compact Spools

- Option 2: Chassis based – 6 RU: Can house up to 3 standalone modules
- Option 3: Chassis based – 3 RU: Can house up to 6 individual delay spools
- Total delays of up to 170 km or 850 uS
- Connector Types: FC/APC. SC/APC, LC, SC, FC, ST, MPO
Optical Splitters
- We offer passive and active splitters
- 1:2, 1:3, 1:4 passive filters are used when the optical signal has to be split several ways to connect multiple Rx units to one Tx unit
- Active splitters are needed to compensate the splitter loss as well as the loss that may stem from existing patch panels
- Active filters may also be used when the RF input power is low and the fiber length is long
