RF Management ATX Maxnet II

• Ultra-dense MCX connector-based RF/optical signal management platform
• Greater than 200% rack space savings over legacy management solutions
• Significantly reduces network lash-up complexity by using MCX connectors and miniature coaxial cable
• 3RU active chassis can accommodate both active & passive modules – up to 24 single-width actives or passives (narrowcast amplifiers, optical receivers) or 12 dual-width modules (Forward RF Amplifiers, RF Detector A/B Switch)
• 3RU passive chassis is also available
• Modules are positioned for front access to test points, controls and pad & EQ locations
• Active chassis includes monitoring & control over the network (HMS compliant (SNMP v2c)) or through a web browser for all active modules in the chassis. Email alarm notification is also supported.
• ALL active modules are hot-swappable.

Chassis & Cable Management options: 

MAXNET II is offered in a compact 3RU chassis (passive and active versions available). Each chassis holds up to 24 single-width modules or 12 dual-width modules (any combination of modules is possible). The modules push and lock into the chassis so no mounting hardware is necessary. Also available are 1RU passive chassis.

Passive chassis offerings:

• Passive chassis with cable management bar
• Passive chassis with dual cable management bar
• Passive chassis with user configurable horizontal channel cable management system
• Passive chassis with user configurable vertical channel cable management system
• Passivechassis with large cable management tray
• Passive reverse chassis
• Round cable management steel bar
• Flat cable management steel bar
• Large cable management tray (clips included)

Active chassis offerings:

• Active chassis with dual cable management bar
• Active reverse chassis
• Active chassis with user configurable horizontal channel cable management system
• Active chassis with user configurable vertical channel cable management system
• Active chassis with large cable management tray
• Active chassis for F connector optics platform (includes rear rails for patch panels and front fiber tray)
• Round cable management steel bar
• Flat cable management steel bar
• Fiber management which can be configured in two positions
• Large cable management tray (clips included)

Splitting/Combining Modules:

• 16-way, 8-way, 6-way, 4-way, dual 4-way, triple 2-way universal splitting/combining modules
• Ultra-dense form factor – incredible space savings (24 8-ways in 3RU chassis)
• Front access -20 dB dual test points (split/combine) on selected modules
• Front access to plug-in locations for pads & EQs
• High performance MCX connector receptacles

Power Supplies:

• 110, 220 VAC or -48 VDC to 24 VDC module offerings
• 24 VDC redundant powering (AC module – diode steered, DC module – true load share) is easily accommodated by installing two power supplies into an active chassis
• 24V rear terminal block output accommodates remote powering options
• Front LEDs indicate 24V power & power supply status
• Voltage, current, temperature, & fan status parameters are easily monitored over the network (HMS compliant (SNMP v2c)) or through a web browser; email alarm notification is also supported
• Power supply module takes up 2 slots in MAXNET II active chassis (total of 24 slots)

Amplifiers options:

• 1 GHz forward RF amplifier
