Yes. I know of several commecial systems. If you only need to do a short
jump, then using fairly basic E/O-O/E equipment should work well
enought. It all depends if you want/can to roll your own or need to buy
a finished product (aka "buy this, and you will be fine!").


Magnus, what's the typical noise floor, tempco or drift of cheap
(i.e., non JPL-level) fiber distribution systems like this? Is it less
than regular coax, or phase stabilized heliax? At 100 m lengths?


OK, tom, you got me with another one.  WTF is phase stabilized heliax?  Is
that a hunk of ordinary heliax that has been characterized or is it made
special in some way?

re: original problem

check out B&B Electronics

sorry, I'm off-line right now and can't browse but they specialize in really
inexpensive implementations of stuff like this.
