FRACARRO Solutions

Since 1933, Fracarro has been designing and manufacturing solutions for the reception and distribution of audio, video, and data signals in individual, communal and hospitality installations, using coaxial, fibre optic and IP technology.
We specialise in end to end processing of signals on GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network), IP and coaxial networks, managing all digital technologies: TV (DVB-T2), SAT (DVB-S2), cable (DVB-C) and IP (DVB-IP).

GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network)
GPON fibre optic solutions to integrate distribution of IP services in multi- user systems, for example the hospitality sector.

Fibre Optic
Distribution of TV, satellite and data services in digital systems using fibre optic products to distribute high quality signals over long distances with minimal signal degradation e.g. FTTH (Fibre To The Home).

Satellite TV Systems
With over 90 years of experience, Fracarro offers the most comprehensive range of solutions for the creation of SMATV and IRS systems using a wide range of technology.

GPON solutions

With a dedicated business team and over twenty years of experience in the creation of fibre optic systems worldwide, Fracarro has always been the ideal partner for the distribution of IP services in multi-user networks.
In addition to our comprehensive range of high-tech products, Fracarro offers in-depth technical knowledge to make complex systems operational: an opportunity that enables engineering companies to be increasingly independent in the development of advanced solutions which, until a few years ago, would have required major investments and/or subcontracts to system integrators.
Fracarro’s GPON services enables support of the entire passive infrastructure installation due to the Project Management activity, and also the ability to interact with technical representatives for planning the IP-PLAN. Fracarro is also involved in logic programming of networks for routers, L3 star centre switches and L2 secondary PoE and non PoE, OLT, ONT, routers, etc. integrating multiple services in a reliable and efficient way.

Advantages of GPON

• Simplification of the system
• Saving of space, materials and time required for installation
• Reduction of plant costs
• Ease of maintenance
• System open to future technological evolutions
• Scalable and suitable for any type of installation
• Greater performance, reliability and safety in data management (256-bit encrypted traffic)
• Passive optical network
• Link distance of up to 20km

Fracarro services for GPON Systems

Fracarro provides specific consultancy services for GPON projects to compliment our high quality professional products.
Our experts can also be involved, if required, in the design and support of the architecture, including planning the system and producing the installation diagram and list of materials needed.
Technicians can be available when the system is ready to be commissioned including programming and testing the system.

GPON

For every requirement, Fracarro can supply all the necessary devices to fulfill the needs of different types of GPON networks, such as FTTR (Fibre to the Room) or FTTD (Fibre to the Desk), for the distribution of heterogeneous services.

High selectivity TV compact headends

Range of programmable FRPRO headends designed with high selectively filtering, to convert and amplify DVB-T and DVB-T2 digital terrestrial channels in the VHF and UHF bands. The headends are equipped with automatic control of the input power with a high dynamic range and LTE filter self-adapting for each UHF input. The configuration is done quickly from the keyboard and display, while the security code ensures maximum protection against tampering.
The FRPRO series headends, ideal for equalising channels in areas where the signals are received from different directions with different levels between them, comprises of models that integrate new features:

Self Equalising: the product scans the signals received at the inputs and amplifies them automatically according to the detected channels, equalising them at the output.
Repeated Mux Conversion: in case of channels present on multiple inputs, you can choose whether to keep only the higher power channel, or convert the lower power channel to free 5G and 4G LTE frequencies (694 – 862MHz).
