Introducing the RF Optic 8.0GHz RF over Fibre Solution, a cutting-edge product designed to revolutionise RF signal transmission.
RF Optics' palm-sized modules are specifically designed to convert RF signals into optical signals, facilitating long-distance transmission. The Tx unit houses an optical transmitter that transforms RF into optical signals, while the Rx unit reconverts them back to RF. These units are interconnected via single-mode fibre. Notably, most modules are available in both 1310 and 1550 nm wavelengths.
Both the Tx and Rx units come equipped with LNAs and variable attenuators, allowing users to fine-tune the Noise Figure, input P1 dB, and IP3 across a wide dynamic range. The LNA, accessible through the Rf over Fibre Software, supports RF input power down to -100 dBm at 1 MHz for wideband applications and boasts a low Noise Figure of 6 dB. The RF over Fibre link offers exceptional gain flatness with 0.5dB gain tracking between different links. For applications that demand temperature stability, a unique algorithm ensures 0.5 dB consistency over the 100 °C range.
D2N further provides a variety of rack mounts and outdoor enclosures tailored to the entire Rf Optic Rf over Fibre range. With a dedicated team of RF Engineers, D2N can design bespoke solutions to meet specific requirements, including site inspections, demo kits, and path calculations.

10/10 Best earpieces in the Market
Works great, instantly sent to me.
The products supplied by D2N was the best in the business. We used these items for the first time around Mount Panorama, Bathurst which is known for poor coverage and interference. Their products were top notch, perfect range and quality of voice around the whole circuit, super impressed!
Great service and delivery, helpful, technical assistance.
Great company and great products.
Great service, & easy communication to get the right product
As advertised not much else to say
Great service as usual, genuine icom programming cable and at a good price. I have had no problems at all with D2N always polite and helpful whether it be by phone or email. Overall extremely satisfied with the D2N and the staff range of stock the pricing of items and postage costs.
Thank you

Amazing tech, exactly what we were looking for - works really well!
Great service also by the D2N team as always.
No issues with cable. Zero faults.
great little radio, easy to use, big improvement from the PD462, no accidental channel changing when on the hip, will be upgrading all our radios over to the BP562
Product was as described and easy to order
