Manufacturer Part Number: A90100.103
Manufacturer Website Address: http://www.cisco.com
Brand Name: Cisco
Product Model: A90100
Product Name: A90100 EGC Fiber Deep Node
Marketing Information:
The node can operate at an output level of 117 dBµV in the forward path and can be configured electronically for quick initial setup or adjustments that are needed as network requirements shift. All settings can be done without interrupting service, an especially important capability in networks that deliver interactive services such as voice over IP (VoIP) and high-speed data. The node is equipped with an interface that allows configuration through a handheld programmer terminal or by connecting to a standard PC. This interface allows the settings to be stored and reapplied to maintain a streamlined configuration.
The node’s large optical input range and high RF output level provide flexible options for use with a large variety of reverse transmitters and to support a variety of applications within the network.
The number of plug-ins has been minimized to help operators keep inventory and costs down. The full-range electronic attenuators and equalizers offer improved versatility and make it possible to achieve the same adjustment range as with conventional plug-ins or potentiometer solutions. A plug-in diplexer filter is used to determine the forward and reverse band split.
To meet future demands for more bandwidth, the node offers an electronic 862 MHz to 1 GHz field-programmable bandwidth extension, and the reverse path can be upgraded to 200 MHz.
The Cisco Compact EGC FDN Model A90100 and A90300 can be configured with a Cisco status monitoring transponder (meeting EuroDOCSIS and DOCSIS standards) to allow remote monitoring of critical node parameters and remote control of the built-in three-state reverse switch. All node settings are remotely addressable using a web GUI and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to help reduce truck rolls and associated cost.
