SG4000 Installation and Operation Manual
Model Description Function
LME-100-*
Forward
equalizers
Used to increase the output tilt of the receiver in a 1 GHz system.
They are available in 1 dB increments from 3 dB through 10 dB.
ICS II
Ingress switch This switch enables the operator to troubleshoot without shutting
down the return path. It requires the use of either the LL-SG4/* or the
SG4-EPIM.
SG4-R/*
Lightwave
receiver
This receiver converts the received optical signal to broadband RF.
SG4-*
Analog return
transmitters
Refer to the list provided in Section 4, “Modules.”
SG4-FSB
Flatness slope
board
Provides slope for individual RF modules.
Electronics Package
Individual RF modules that provide superior port-to-port isolation and improved reliability now
replace the traditional one-piece electronics package. Connections to the RF modules are made
with double-shielded RG 179 RF cables for the forward and return path signals.
The individual RF modules can be driven by multiple combinations of receivers, transmitters,
and plug-in configuration boards.
Forward Band
Forward band configurations use up to four SG4-R receivers in the following combinations:
Split
Four common RF outputs are served by a single SG4-R/* receiver.
Split redundant
Four common RF outputs are served by either of two SG4-R/* receivers.
Segmented 2X
Two SG4-R/* receivers – each drives one pair of RF outputs.
Segmented 2X redundant
Two pairs of SG4-R/* receivers – each pair drives one pair of RF outputs.
Segmented 4X
Four SG4-R receivers each drive an individual RF output.
Return Band
Return band configurations use up to four analog optical transmitters in the following
combinations:
Combined Single
All four RF returns are combined and are input to a single return transmitter.
Combined redundant
All four RF returns are combined and are input to two return transmitters.
Split
Two pair of RF returns are combined and each is input to a return transmitter.
Split redundant
Two pair of RF returns are combined and each is input to two return transmitters.
Segmented
Each RF return is input to a dedicated return transmitter.
