The OmniStar GX2 is a fiber optic broadband transmission platform for headend and hub locations
that supports advanced hybrid-fiber coax telecommunications systems. The GX2 series is a complete
line of headend fiber optic products designed to transport video and data signals in CATV systems
and related applications. The OmniStar GX2 system is flexible in its application and includes a series
of modules and options that you can select to accommodate system requirements.
The GX2 system offers a solution for the next generation of broadband network applications where
its requirements for smaller node sizes, deployment of point-to-point lasers, and return-path
applications optimize operating space. Its high module density enables network operators to install
more equipment in less space. The wide operational bandwidth of the platform enables you to offer
more revenue-generating services.
