This new capability has the potential to revolutionize the remote antenna application landscape by addressing remote-end power constraints. It is expected to provide significant benefits to installations within the aerospace and defense markets.

Power-over-Fiber eliminates power restrictions by utilizing existing fiber optic backbone networks to deliver the required power to the antenna. This eliminates the need for external power supplies at the remote end while incorporating all the benefits of fiber optics into a conventional radio frequency link.

Supplying power to remote antenna locations is a common challenge in shelters and other command and control applications within the defense industry.

Direct GPSoF employs laser safety features that comply with IEC laser standards. The use of the Q-ODC connector ensures a robust connection using single-mode fibers, enabling link distances of up to 10 km.

Attendees at DSEI 2019 will be the first to witness this innovative technology, as HUBER + SUHNER presents the direct GPSoF solution with a live demonstration at the event.
