Extend POTS Telephone Service Over Singlemode Fiber

The PK4S POTS-to-fiber converter installation kit provides a practical way to extend analog telephone communications over singlemode fiber. By converting the POTS connection to fiber for transmission between locations, the system allows telephone service to be extended well beyond the normal limitations of copper cabling.

The PK4S uses singlemode duplex fiber and supports a distance capability of up to 20 km.

FXO and FXS POTS Connectivity

The PK4S installation kit is designed around the FXO/FXS architecture used for POTS fiber extension.

  • FXO: Exchange/PBX side
  • FXS: Subscriber/telephone side
  • Function: POTS
  • Fiber: Singlemode
  • Transmission: Duplex

This configuration provides a point-to-point fiber connection for analog telephone service.

Singlemode Fiber Transmission

Singlemode fiber provides the extended reach needed for longer-distance POTS applications. The PK4S is specified for up to 20 km of singlemode duplex fiber transmission when the appropriate length of fiber optic cable is used.

All VERSITRON units in this product family use LC optical connectors.

Standalone Installation

The PK4S is configured for standalone installation, making it suitable for deployments where rack-mounted equipment is not required. The VERSITRON 4-channel POTS selector guide distinguishes the PK4S from the PK4S-RM rack-mount version.

POTS to Fiber Applications

The PK4S can be used for:

  • PBX-to-remote telephone connections
  • Building-to-building telephone links
  • Long-distance POTS extensions
  • Remote subscriber connections
  • Commercial and industrial facilities
  • Fiber-based telephone infrastructure
  • Voice communications between separated facilities
