Abstract

See full text

A deployable photonic link including a deployable length of optical fiber and an interface module fusion spliced to at least one end of the optical fiber so that the module is directly connected to the fiber. The interface module including at least one of: an input for receiving a first electrical signal including a first radio frequency (RF) signal component; and an output for outputting a second RF signal component. The interface module further including, respectively, at least one of: a device for receiving the first electrical signal from the input and for producing an optical signal modulated with the first RF signal component for transmission in the optical fiber; and a device for receiving a modulated optical signal and for producing therefrom the second RF signal component for output at the output. An interface module may also contain both the input and the output and the devices for receiving RF signals and for receiving modulated optical signals.
