MINI FTTH FILTER NODE 2000 SF

MINI FTTH FILTER NODE 2000 SF – High-Performance Optical Receiver for FTTH Networks

The MINI FTTH FILTER NODE 2000 SF is a compact and powerful optical receiver designed specifically for Fiber to the Home (FTTH) applications. Engineered with precision, this device is an ideal solution for delivering high-quality CATV signals, video broadcasting, and internet services directly to end-users over passive optical networks.

With its small footprint, high sensitivity, and excellent RF performance, the 2000 SF filter node enables seamless integration into residential and small commercial environments, making it a cost-effective and reliable choice for modern fiber networks.

Compact Design with Maximum Efficiency

One of the standout features of the MINI FTTH FILTER NODE 2000 SF is its ultra-compact body, which makes it easy to install in limited spaces such as wall boxes, ONT enclosures, or small cabinets. Despite its small size, this optical node houses high-end RF and optical components that deliver exceptional performance in signal reception and filtering.

The miniature form factor ensures that it can be deployed closer to the subscriber, reducing signal degradation and ensuring excellent audio and video clarity.

Built-in Optical Filter Technology

The term “Filter Node” highlights a critical aspect of this model: it features a built-in optical filter that allows selective reception of wavelengths. This means it can differentiate and process only the required optical signals (e.g., CATV video signals), filtering out any unnecessary or interfering wavelengths.

This functionality is especially important in scenarios where multiple services such as internet (1490 nm) and video (1550 nm) are delivered simultaneously via the same fiber. The 2000 SF filter node isolates the video signal, providing clean and interference-free video output.

High Sensitivity for Low-Power Optical Inputs

The MINI FTTH FILTER NODE 2000 SF is designed with high optical sensitivity, typically in the range of -8 dBm to +2 dBm. This means it can effectively receive signals even in low-power environments or longer-distance transmissions, making it ideal for edge deployments in expansive networks.

The AGC (Automatic Gain Control) feature ensures stable RF output levels even when optical input fluctuates, thus protecting connected devices and maintaining consistent signal quality.

Stable and High-Quality RF Output

Equipped with a high-performance GaAs amplifier, the node delivers strong and stable RF output, typically up to 78 dBμV. This ensures clear picture and sound quality on end-user televisions and STBs (set-top boxes), even when multiple TVs are connected through splitters.

The flat RF response across the operating frequency range ensures minimal distortion and better picture quality, meeting modern broadcasting standards.

Wide Compatibility and Easy Installation

This filter node supports standard SC/APC or SC/UPC optical connectors and features an F-type RF output port, making it compatible with most residential CATV setups. Its plug-and-play installation ensures that no technical expertise is required during deployment, saving time and reducing installation costs.

Additionally, the low power consumption and efficient heat dissipation system make it ideal for 24/7 operation in various environmental conditions.

Ideal for Triple Play Networks

The MINI FTTH FILTER NODE 2000 SF supports the growing demand for triple-play services (voice, video, and data) by enabling effective video signal delivery over GPON/EPON networks. It is often used in conjunction with ONTs or modems that provide internet and voice services, while this node delivers the RF video output independently.

This separation ensures optimal performance across services and enhances the customer experience.
