Radio over Fiber — Compact receiver with OLED

Fiber reception,
controlled to the dBm.

The AFR-250S is a compact dual-channel Radio-over-Fiber receiver featuring a 1.3" OLED display that shows, in real time, RF level, optical loss, supply voltage and attenuator value per channel. Two powering modes (DC push-pull or DC-feed from a splitter), aluminum housing, optional 19" rail mount. Made in France.

Highlights

1.3" OLED, four readouts

RF level per channel, optical loss per channel, supply voltage, attenuator value per channel: everything you need to diagnose a fiber link in one second.

Compact and stackable

Close to AS-122 footprint: on a sound cart, in a bag, or mounted 4-up on a 19" bar. The same unit across every setup.

Bag · cart · 4× on 19"

Per-channel attenuators

Adjust sensitivity per channel to balance levels in multi-antenna setups, or to protect the downstream chain from an antenna placed too close to a transmitter.

Per channel · adjustable

Two powering modes

Classic DC push-pull power, or DC-feed from a downstream splitter (AS-62, AS-122). One less cable in the rack.

Visual alerts

Dedicated LEDs flag excessive RF level or excessive optical loss. Chain issues surface to the eye, not to the scope.

Recyclable aluminum housing

Machined aluminum: passive thermal dissipation, mechanical strength, and 100 % recyclable at end-of-life. Consistent with the rest of the BSRF range.

Use cases

Mobile sound recording

Recover two fiber antennas in a sound bag

AFB-250 on the stage side, AFR-250S on the mixer side, powered by the AS-62 splitter DC-feed: fiber replaces coax in a sound bag without adding a power brick.

Fiber diagnostic

Spot a degrading fiber in real time

The OLED shows optical loss per channel. A drifting value warns before the hard failure — useful for rental gear moving between shoots.

Semi-permanent install

Rack 4 fiber receivers on a 19" bar

The 19" bar version accommodates up to four independent AFR-250S: eight RoF channels in 1U, each with its own OLED, attenuator, DC-feed.
