Pilot Carrier Redundancy Switch
**DISCONTINUED**
ATX’s Pilot Carrier Redundancy Switch for resilient backup of pilot channels that drive performance in outside plant HFC systems.
Features
- Reinserts replacement oscillator at 2 different RF output levels based on user defined threshold settings
- Monitor and control of all functions through front panel or through web browser (HMS compliant, SNMP v2c)
- LCD display shows current alarms and allows detector thresholds to be set
- Independent, load sharing, field-replaceable AC or DC power supplies provide full power redundancy
- Front panel test points for oscillator levels and combined full system output level monitoring
- Measures a filtered sample of the RF input to determine when the internally generated replacement pilot carriers need to turn on
- Simple 2-cable connection with highly reliable passive through path
- 1 or 2 pilot channels chosen at time of order will define the fixed filter and oscillator frequencies
- Field-upgradeable and swappable pilot carrier filters and replacement oscillators
