Fiber networks to the home are not only perfectly appropriate for data transmission but can also be used as an ideal medium for the transmission of TV signals. The RF video overlay method utilizes this feature to transmit particularly broadcast TV content efficiently via Fiber to the Home networks. It provides the customer with digital and analog TV with an equivalent data rate of several gigabit per second. Stable power supply even with high data usage Whereas fast surfing and real-time telephony via the Internet used to be the decisive factors for investments by network operators, new service industries have developed, which require ever greater amounts of data: IP-TV with hundreds of high-resolution TV channels up to 4K, streaming platforms such as Netflix, YouTube or Amazon with an immense range of movies and entertainment on demand, online games with several users in real time as well as extensive data uploads and downloads. In addition, there are new, digital forms of work, such as the home office. A cost-effective solution for all FTTH/FTTB network structures With RF Video Overlay, the desired TV and radio programs are received from different satellites through the NEO processing series and transmodulated into digital cable TV channels. An optical transmitter converts the high-frequency signals into light signals and feeds them into the fiber optic network. As light-based transmission has almost no loss of quality or latency, transmission of over 100 km is possible. The reconversion of the optical signals takes place at the end customer. For this purpose, HUBER+SUHNER BKtel has developed the XON series of termination units that fit different customer requirements (TV and/or Internet). With "RF Video Overlay", every subscriber has access to a comprehensive and stable TV package and maximum Internet bandwidth, even at peak times.
