Rosenberger provides a wide product range of solderless PCB connectors for challenging test & measure­ment demands and for frequencies up to 110 GHz. These PCB connectors can easily be assembled by using screws. Standard screws are included, optional screws for thicker PCBs are available on request.

Rosenberger presents a new and innovative GPS over Fiber system for applications where coax cannot be used to route the GPS signal to base stations. With more centralized RAN and large-scale DAS applications, there are many cases where the GPS antennas are located too far from the base stations for coaxial losses to be acceptable. To overcome this issue, the GPS over Fiber system converts the RF signal to light, transmits it over the fiber, and then restores the light to the original RF signal. Working in contrast to the many systems that employ a bulky remote unit – which requires power and separate mounting space – as well as a large master unit encompassing an active GPS splitter, Rosenberger has rethought the process and designed a fiber-optic replacement for the coaxial cable. Instead of a master unit and a remote unit, the system uses an electrooptical converter (E/O converter) at the antenna and an opto-electrical converter (O/E converter) near the base station. By employing this method, the E/O converter becomes a small, compact unit that connects directly to the GPS antenna. The unit is so small that it can even fit within a 1 ½ inch pipe of the kind often used to mount GPS antennas. The O/E converter handles all alarms and is a compact unit. It can be used to power the E/O converter and can be connected to standard GPS splitters with full support for their redundancy functionality. This means that the GPS over Fiber system fully emulates the behavior of a passive copper cable and GPS antenna, allowing any device that is normally connected to the GPS antenna to maintain proper operation when connected to an O/E converter. Interconnecting the two units i.e. E/O converter to the O/E converter is a thin hybrid cable comprised of fiber and power, which means no power source is required at the GPS antenna. The individual link support for each GPS antenna allows for the flexibility of using a normal coaxial configuration and simply replacing each coax cable from a GPS antenna with an E/O converter, an O/E converter, and a hybrid cable. With a maximum hybrid cable length of 1.9 miles (3 km), this system can meet the demands of almost any installation

The 8-fiber design reduces costs by making optimum use of all the fibers. PreCONNECT® OCTO is backwards-compatible and can be integrated in existing network structures with duplex technology by means of MTP® harnesses. The elimination of unnecessary interfaces and module cassettes also helps cut costs and reduces channel attenuation. The PreCONNECT® OCTO cabling system enables the optimization of the data transfer in network structures.

PreCONNECT® DUODECIM is the perfect solution for all who still have conventional transceivers for duplex applications like 10/25/50 GBE and 8/16/32 GFC on both cabling sides in foreseeable time, but want to be prepared for the migration to MPO based parallel optics applications. Trunks and 19" panels can be further used for migration. The fiber optic cabling system PreCONNECT® DUODECIM promises investment security by optimal use of the trunks for duplex applications and MPO based parallel optical applications. The perfectly matched modular individual components are quick and easy to install thanks to the factory-fabricated Plug & Play system.
