CEO and Co-Founder Meir Bartur named to top Photonics 100 Optical Zonu would like to offer a big thank you to the judges at Electro Optics, one of the largest sources of news and analysis in the Photonics industry, and the greater Europa Science team, for recognizing Meir and his important work in radio frequency over fiber (RFoF) technologies. These technologies range from existing Optical Zonu solutions like our patented uOTDR that can plug into existing data transport switches and locate fiber fault anywhere within a few meters, and new research into lasers that can maintain fixed gain of RFoF without cooling?to reduce transmitter power requirements and ultimately cuts costs.

OZC continues to dominate the press with RFoF offerings - in Microwave Product Digest. The Essential Role of N+1 Redundancy in RF Over Fiber Communication Systems The ability to communicate over long distances has been crucial since the beginning of modern civilization. However, today’s communications have never been more sophisticated and critical to innovation and national security. Between 24/7 data centers routinely transmitting exabytes of data to and from the cloud, the growth of high-frequency (and easily disrupted) military communications, as well as public safety radio systems, telecom infrastructure cannot afford even nanoseconds of downtime without placing data and operations at serious risk. This is why businesses and government organizations can only afford to implement some type of network redundancy in radio frequency over fiber (RFoF) systems. Protection against a single point of failure can be achieved by duplication, but it is expensive, recovery is not necessarily automatic, and operational complexities make it impractical. Where full or even half redundancy may not be economically plausible for most organizations, N+1 redundancy is perhaps the most efficient and reasonable way to protect communication systems.

For those interested in our BTS to DAS Fiber Optic Transport System, known as Zonu Connect. We have completed a brief video on installation and commissioning. You can check it out here https://lnkd.in/gibFA8RK

OZC's Industry leading NMS receives major media exposure Optical Zonu?added fiber fault detection and localization capabilities to its CloudView Network Management System for the?ZONUConnect?base transceiver station to distributed antenna system fiber-optic transport solution. This additional functionality provides significant visibility into RFoF network performance, and more quickly and accurately detects the location of fiber faults. The ZONUConnect platform has a micro optical time-domain reflectometer in its pluggable modules to highlight fiber fault detection data within a few meters. Additional upgrades to the CloudView NMS enable visual representation of the fiber pass on terrain maps, with OTDR data overlaid on the management panel to show fiber faults and reflection events with precise map locations. The Network Management System’s ability to provide visualization of preventive fiber events, and not just fiber breaks, can solve issues that could render a RFoF network non-operational, locating imperfections to reduce total fiber loss and achieve better performance. You can find our cutting edge network management solution in the following publications Microwave Journal:? Electronic Specifier:? EverythingRF:?

Optical Zonu Launches Fault Detection and Localization for ZONUConnect CloudView Network Management System Optical Zonu Corporation, a leading provider of radio frequency over fiber (RFoF) transport solutions, has introduced new fiber fault detection and localization capabilities to its CloudView Network Management System (NMS) for the ZONUConnect base transceiver station (BTS) to distributed antenna system (DAS) fiber optic transport solution. This functionality empowers telecommunication operators and enterprises with significant visibility into RFoF network performance, and the ability to more quickly and accurately detect the location of fiber faults to remediate network issues and avoid downtime. read more here https://lnkd.in/gE2Cpz2r

The Optical Zonu BTS to DAS fiber link system known as ZonuConnect has recently added new features to it’s CloudView NMS management system. The optical chassis use a dedicated CWDM optical channel for Ethernet and SNMP communication for several generations. The internal data communication uses an SFP for this management backhaul. It has been a standard to use Optical Zonu proprietary uOTDR enabled SFPs for this functionality; but accessing the OTDR data has been cumbersome until now. New upgrades to the CloudView NMS system allow visual and graphical representation of the OTDR data to be overlaid on the management panel. After a ZonuConnect system is installed and setup correctly in CloudView NMS; the user can see any fiber reflections or faults clearly displayed on the map overlay.

OZC Plug in Modules featured on cover of Microwave Product Digest The JXM series plugin modules for J-Chassis platforms extend RF and microwave over fiber transport into the Ku, K, Ka, Q, and V bands. They can have lower frequency roll-off as low as 20 kHz, and the JXM series of receivers offer a spurious-free dynamic range for a typical link of 108 dB/Hz. Noise figure, input 1 dB compression, and input third-order intercept performance can be optimized for various optical loss budgets. https://lnkd.in/gP2cwC3r
