Further Enhancements for DEV’s OPTRIBUTION®  Portfolio

DWDM up to 48:1 and Matrix with optical inputs launched on IBC 2013 

Within its OPTRIBUTION® product family for the optical transmission, reception and distribution of RF signals in satellite ground stations and CATV head-ends, DEV Systemtechnik has expanded its portfolio and now offers modules to be used in their OPTRIBUTION® Chassis based on DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) technology. With DEV’s OPTRIBUTION® System for DWDM, 48 signals can be transmitted over one single optical fiber simultaneously with a maximum signal quality over a distance of more than 200 kilometers. A DEV OPTRIBUTION® Chassis of 3 RU can be equipped with a 16:1 DWDM System. The user saves purchase or leasing costs and increases systems reliability because of fewer connection and link lines requirements.  

In addition, a DEV Matrix with optical inputs will be launched at IBC. Bringing together optical reception and RF Matrix functionality, the new system can be realized and upgraded to any size up to 1024 x 1024 and is easy to manage with one CPU and one Web-Interface regardless of size.  

DEV’s OPTRIBUTION® product family will be presented during IBC 2013 from 13 to 17 September in Amsterdam at Booth No. 1.F34 in Hall 1.
