Series 4000
Foxcom, keeping pace with the changing needs of the commercial satcom industry is releasing the Series 4000 outdoor enclosure system creating a variety of new options to integrate fiber optic transmitters and receivers into earth station facilities. Foxcom is incorporating its best in class fiber optic L-Band and IF links into an outdoor enclosure system. "Many of our customers do not have protected or temperature controlled environments at the antenna site but nonetheless want to enjoy the many benefits of fiber optic links. Our newly designed outdoor fiber optic enclosure will allow those operators to install fiber optic interfacility links at the antenna with high performance connectivity to the control room," said John Murphy, Director Foxcom Americas.

The 4000 outdoor unit can house any combination of two fiber optic transmitter and receiver modules accommodating a wide variety of application options. For downlinks, each of the transmitters can handle one of two satellite polarities. In terms of uplinks, each receiver at the antenna site can feed a standalone up-converter or any number of hub-mounted TWTA's or SSPA's. Lastly, the Series 4000 can be configured as a transceiver for VSAT or other interactive data applications.

The compact Series 4000 outdoor physical dimensions are 14" H by 6" W by 3" D and has a -20 to +55O C temperatures range. The enclosure meets NEMA 4 requirements featuring two N type RF connectors, two FC/APC fiber optic connectors and a 110/220 AC connector. All the connectors are weatherized and can operate in rugged outdoor environment conditions.
