ONU RFoG Mini Node

The Maxcom MX700AC series ONU mini nodes offer enhanced features such as AGC (Automatic Gain Control), or PON ports to support GPON, EPON, xPON services. Maxcom offers highly reliable RFoG solutions.

  1. General Details

    The Maxcom MX700 series ONU’s are ideal for use in fiber to the home, MDU or business applications. These mini-nodes provide a reliable platform for delivering upstream and downstream DOCSIS, voice, video and high speed data PON services over FTTX applications. They are designed compliant to industry standards to terminate an RF over Glass (RFoG) communications network. Compatible with GPON transmission modes, they include an optional optical MUX for pass through of the XPON or XGSPON downstream and upstream wavelengths. They can be used as a standalone RFoG based service, or as an overlay on a PON network. The device uses a single fiber and receives downstream signals at 1550nm, and uses a 1610nm Isolated DFB return transmitter. Wavelengths and other features may be customized to your needs. Environmentally hardened and built with maximum toughness and the best in class warranty.
