ICON3100 Line extender
ICON3100 Intelligent 1.8 GHz line extender is especially designed for the North American cable broadband market and its requirements.
A new generation of intelligent line extenders broadens our offering for the North American cable broadband market and its requirements. The ICON3100 amplifier stands out as a future-proof choice in the network evolution towards DOCSIS® 4.0 and the logical step of upgrading coaxial systems to a 1.8 GHz design.
Maintaining backward compatibility has been one of the key design principles in the new ICON3100 line extender. Although they support 1.8 GHz and future DOCSIS 4.0 rollouts, they can also be used in lower frequency networks. In such cases, the award-winning Power Save technology enables lower power consumption. Features such as Automatic Level and Slope Control (ALSC) and intelligent return path control based on forward path measurements, often known as the Return Follows Forward (RFF) principle, are available for every operator needing to guarantee high network performance under all circumstances. With smart and automatic features the ICON3100 eliminates the efforts normally associated with conventional and time-consuming network operations.
Features at a glance:
- Supports up to 1.8 GHz downstream and 684 MHz upstream
- Native US/DS ALSC exceeding traditional AGC based designs
- Automatic alignment of US/DS
- Electrical level and slope controls
- Efficient ESD and Surge protection
