FTTH broadband access with RF Video Overlay
With RF Video Overlay, the TV signal will transmitted parallel with
the data stream so that more capacity is available for other data
services. A bottleneck is avoided.
Fiber networks to the home are not only perfectly suitable 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
While Web browsing, Email and Voice over IP used to be the key
factors for IP network utilization, new services have evolved,
which require even 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 can
be received from a wide range of sources. An optical transmitter
converts the high-frequency signals into light signals and feeds
them into the fiber optic network. As lightbased 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.
