Radio over Fiber — IP hybrid combiner, 2 coax + 6 fibers

Eight antennas,
one web UI, one remote control room.

The ACH-862 is a dual-channel IP-controlled hybrid combiner, summing two coax antennas and up to six fiber antennas (3 × OpticalCon Duo) across 470–800 MHz. TLS-encrypted web interface, per-channel gain, individual ON/OFF, presets, local or remote selection. OpticalCon Duo APC or DUO LC/APC optical connector at order time. Made in France.

Eight combinable antennas

Two coax inputs for the stage, six fiber inputs (3 × OpticalCon Duo) for distant zones. You switch locally or remotely, without leaving the control room.

2 coax + 6 fiber = 8

Local or IP selection

Select the active antenna from the front panel, or via browser from anywhere on the network. Single simultaneous session — no config conflict.

Use cases

Multi-venue broadcast

Manage eight antennas across a festival

Coax antennas on the stage + fiber antennas in each audience/dressing/backstage area: the ACH-862 combines them into two BNCs, and you switch live from the central control room.

Permanent install

Supervise an HF infrastructure remotely

A remote technician connects via browser from any workstation, checks RF levels, enables or disables a faulty antenna, saves a new preset — with no travel.

Hybrid event

Switch quickly between operating modes

"Rehearsal" preset (stage antennas only), "show" preset (all antennas active): recall is instant, with no risk of forgetting an antenna.
