The Olson LaserPlus LP-OLAT Advanced LBand Transmitter offers a feature-rich, versatile system in a
compact rack-mount package. The Advanced L-Band Transmitter has been engineered to meet today's
high performance standards for LBand transport with an extreme bandwidth range that will also allow the
system to handle the next generation of satellite signals. The Advanced L-Band system is ideal for a wide
variety of communications applications, including L-Band satellite antenna remoting, trunking radio,
telemetry tracking, and time and frequency reference distribution. The extended frequency range to 4GHz
allows this system to accommodate additional transponders coinciding with common European satellite
communication applications.
The enhanced bandwidth to 4GHz is also unique in that it facilitates stacked LNB applications to accom-
modate additional transponders containing enhanced DBS programming services (e.g., HDTV, local
channels, etc.) over single-mode fiber for DBS television distribution in campus, fiber-to-the-pre-mise
(FTTx), and multiple dwelling unit (MDU) environments. The transmitter is offered with 75 Ohm imped-
ance using “F” RF connectors or 50 Ohms with SMA RF connectors. Optical connector op-tions include
SC/APC and FC/APC. Built-in test points, LED indicators and alarms allow the receiver to be easily set
up and maintained.
The LP-OLAT Transmitter is housed in a machined Aluminum enclosure that fits the standard
LaserPlus
chassis allowing up to 14 or 15 modules in a 3RU space. (The exact number is determined by the num-
ber of power supplies in the chassis, single or dual).

Physical Characteristics
NOTES:
1) The RFgain will change 2dB for each 1dB of optical loss.
2) The transmitter P
1dB
and also IP3 varies dB per dB as the
gain is changed. See the manual for detailed data.
3) Noise figure is a complex variable that is influenced by the
Tx and Rx attenuator settings as well as the optical loss.
See the manual for detailed data.
4) The Hi/Lo Gain switch on the front panel changes the gain
by +10dB. The hexadecimal rotary switch on the front panel
changes the gain in 1dB steps. The “0” setting on the rotary
switch is the lowest gain (0dB). The “F” setting on the rotary
switch is the highest gain (+15dB).
