Thor Fiber Optic To Coax Cable - Send a TV Antenna signal though Fiber Optic Cable!

In this video we look at making my over the air ATSC antenna feed and Master Antenna system converted to a Fiber Optic cable and then converted back to coax cable.

Thor Optical Mini CATV RF Transmitter 45-1000Mhz

The Thor Fiber Optical Mini CATV RF 45-900Mhz Transmitter is mainly used for transmitting long distance optical fiber transmission of CATV RF - Analog or digital QAM or ATSC Television Digital TV, telephone and data transmission. It's application for digital signal transmission of video and data in the cable television and communications industry. The transmission range can vary from 5km to 30km. It comes equipped with an advanced DFB laser that readily provides expectionally high performance and RF power, as well as automatic processing technology developed by our company. Finally it has a built-in micro-computer that automatically monitors the control system and guarantees excellent performance of the equipment.
Features

45 -1000MHz working bandwidth
High performance DFB coaxial laser that has a great linking performance and stable output
Advanced CPU processing and with an auto monitoring system to supervise the operational status which leads to a longer life of the laser
Low power loss design(less than 8W) which creates a ver low operational temperature

IMPORTANT NOTE*** (it is very important to interface our unit with SC/APC - Angle Polished Connector to avoid any light reflections.

If your fiber is terminated with the SC, ST, FC /PC flat connector, you need to use an optical jumper from PC type to SC/APC for proper conversion.

Thor Fiber Optical Mini FTTH RF CATV CABLE TV Receiver with Dual Coax Output
F-RF-RX-MN-2

Description

The Thor Fiber Mini FTTH optical receiver F-RF-RFMN-2 is specifically designed for FTTH networks. These ultra compact Fiber-To-The-Home optical receivers were designed and engineered to ensure compatibility for any type of FTTH network structure in mind. It has small compact housing, mini-internal circuit structure that still remains a high performance, low cost receiver that is economical for any project. It can be used for any application of HFC network fiber to the home (FTTH) because of it's form factor and output power. These units have a wide range for receiving optical power, high output level and low power consumption. They are the ideal pieces for any optical fiber network which can provide a highly reliable, digital video frequency and data bi-directional transmission for the HFC network. It could be use to send CATV RF point to point or point to multipoint.

This unit comes in a kit: part of the Thor Fiber MIni Transmitter / Receiver kit with F-RF-TX-MN-2Mw


Features

Designed for FTTH (Fiber To The Home) Networks
Excellent linearity and flatness
Converts Optical siganl to electrical RF 45-10000Mhz
Analog NTSC/PAL, Digital QAM, ATSC, DVB-T ,
20dBmV RF ouput power at Optical Input: -0 dBm

So many possibilities with these digital modulators! I just set up a Channel Vision modulator - 3 analog closed circuit TV channels to go with my antenna digital channels. I use my VHS, Betamax and a DTV converter box as a USB media player to feed the 3 channels. Then I combined it with my antenna through a diplexer and feed the TVs in my house. Custom TV channels! Great video Robbie!👍

[BlueMSX.]

Thanks a million! I've been trying to find an answer to the question of if something like this actually existed and was effective long distances. Thank you very much. ;3

[Sam-fbnq]

These Thor product look really nice. Sticker shock on the cost though at least for home use. I can see the cost being more in line with the commercial setup you talk about though.

[OKBCK]

This is very useful technology, shame the TV content is unwatchable these days..

[SBPepperminion]

Does Thor Broadcasting have a Coax to Fiber Transiever like that for DVB Satellite systems like the DISH Hopper system? And if there is, will it affect the MOCA technology?

[mulengamukuka]

Thanks.... can I run it from the LNB to the decoder?

[fredvolkman]

My condo wants to add fibre cable for internet and TV. The fibre goes to a router as I understand it. The issue that is not clear is how it goes from the router to a tv which has no wifi capability. The things I have seen is the coaxial cable currently distributing tv signal to various rooms where TVs are is retained as a delivery system which to me defeats any gains at the TV of fibre. Am I missing something

[antoniotabbich]

Hello dear does it work if i want to send my DVB-S2 signal from the satellite to the reciver via fiber optic

[zxcookie]

Hi, the signal for my tv/wifi comes from fiber optic cable that goes into the router (unde it to be exact). The router/modem or whatever it is has all the ports. For Coax that goes into the TVs and internet (both ethernet and wireless wifi). The router/modem is WIFI 4 and I want to switch to Wifi 6. How can i do that when there are no more devices that can hold fiber optic in and coax, wifi, ethernet out. Any advide on what to buy and how to setup? The wifi would be for me because i want to move the router in my room, while there is a Coax cable coming from the back of it that goes to TVs for my parents. I would really love some help from anyone that knows.

Hi Robbie you are the Albert Einstein on the Sat OTA information. Question when I used to work at Tweeter Hi-Fi Buys and we has Sat internet, how can i sat that up at my house if possible. Ps someone already took off that Sat dish off the Tweeter Hi-Fi building Thank you sir.

[Patrick_AUBRY]

Here's a related subjects to cover somehow:
what's about those direct IP LNBs for the dish?
Are they any LNB with full spectrum over fiber?
Why not run wave guide instead of wire from a dish?

let's get real geeky :-)

[Oldhogleg]

Would that be a great way to electrically decouple your antenna from your receiver to prevent lightning strikes to your antenna damaging your receiver?

[cliffweaver]

I WILL WATCH THIS AGAIN IN CASE I MISSED HERE GOES I RAN A FIBER TO THE HORSE BARN AND TO THE GARAGE NOW I HAVE DATA AT BOTH LOCATIONS. 1. IS THERE A ETHERNET VERSION OF THIS? 2. IF NOT, HOW DO I ADD THIS TO A EXISTING DATA FIBER NETWORK

[therealcoreb]

Just a thought for a topic in case you ever run out of ideas.

its great for all receiver end point when dealing multiple room setup and benefit with great speeds but problems with fiber is it can't operate at satellite signal greatly due to missing magnetic fields is needed to oscillate the signals polarities ....like channels...even and odd...without it...sats won't deliver programming through atmosphere and all obstacles to the ground like noise....fiber doesn't like noise its why they will never leave its cable for a very long time due to dependence of transparent cladding material with a lower index of refraction ...without it....its dead ...cable never dies...just cut the end point and you got it working again or get new piece ....but fiber...?? any where is damage ....whole cable is dead..unless you can master on splicing and repair requires more than knowledge and skills do A NIGHTMARE I TELLING YOU WHEN REPAIRING FIBER CABLES
in my opinion COPPER GONNA STAY WITH US FOR VERY LONG TIME AS LONGEST SATS STAY UP THERE IN ORBIT ....CELL TOWERS AND SATELLITE COMPANIES STILL DEPENDING COPPER TO FUNCTION ITS DESIGN WAS WELL MADE FOR ....OSCILLATE FREQUENCY WITHOUT MAKE BIG DEAL WITH CONVERSIONS LIKE CABLE HAVE TO DO FOR GETTING FASTER INTERNET ...MANY CONVERSION BOXES IN THE NODES....

EVEN I REMEMBER EUROPA DID THAT FOR THEIR IT NEVER GOT THROUGH AS THEY HOPE FOR....MANY VARIATIONS ISSUES WITH LNB AND THE RECEIVER CONVERSION....HAVE ANYONE NOTICE THAT BACK THOSE DAYS WITH YOUR CABLE SUBSCRIPTIONS PLUS THE CABLE MODEM....NOTICE WHEN IT LAG ..ITS NOT BAD BUT ITS SEC WHEN WATCHING PROGRAM ..THEN IT JITTERS ONCE OF WHILE FOR EVERY 40 MIN OR LONGER ...PEOPLE WON'T NOTICE WHEN SURFING THE WEB CAUSE PEOPLE ARE USED TO THAT SORT THE THING BACK THEN...JITTER PARTS BUT ON WATCHING TV...ITS VERY NOTICEABLE ....ITS WHEN CONVERSION BACK THEN WHERE BAD OR EARLY DAYS OF HYBRID CABLE WAS STILL STAGE ONE ....NOW DAYS I HOPE ITS IMPROVING GREATLY FOR TV VIEWING ...SINCE I LEFT CABLE COMPANIES AND DECIDING USED SATELLITES MY OWNED INSTEAD ...ITS GOOD EXPERIENCE WHEN I DID THAT
