INTRODUCTION
INSTALLATION / ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
The OTPN-800CH is a high-quality, cost-effective, bidirectional CATV node designed
around the latest optical receiver technology. It is designed to operate and meet full
specifications with optical input levels ranging from -8dBm to +2dBm. The receive RF
path includes provisions for plug-in equalizers to provide for sloped output response as
well as user adjustable padding to set the forward and reverse RF gains. The OTPN-
800CH is available with three different band splits; 1) 5-42/54-1,000MHz, 2)
The OTPN-800CH can be equipped with an optional return laser transmitter. An AC
adapter is with an input range of 100-240V , 50/60Hz is supplied with each unit.
The OTPN-800CH is specified to operate from -10°C to +55°C. It should be mounted in
an adequately ventilated area. Like any other electronic equipment, it will probably have
a longer life span if it is not operated at the upper limit of the temperature range.
Installation in wet areas or areas of extremely high humidity should be avoided. The
OTPN-800CH should not be installed in areas that are accessible to children.
The OTPN-800CH may be installed and operated in any position on a flat surface. The
unit has two slots in the bottom plate to accommodate mounting hardware. The unit
should be mounted by sliding over one screw and then tightening the other screw. If
mounting requires a wood screw, use #6 or #8 (maximum) pan-head sheet metal
screws. If mounting with a machine screw (to tapped holes), use 6-32 pan-head screws.
