The Metrodata HE1000 HSSI Extender provides a simple Plug & Play point to point HSSI extension function. The HE1000 offers the ability to extend a HSSI connection to 150 metres whilst operating at variable data rates up to 51.84Mbps.

The HE1000 operates as a HSSI DCE, providing the transmit timing to an attached router. A simple dip-switch selection enables operation at either n*1Mb/s or standard network frequencies such as 34.368Mbps for example. The HE1000 provides a standards-compliant asynchronous serial interface (ASI) as the transmission medium.
ASI runs over standard coaxial cable terminated with BNC connectors. It provides a much more flexible and robust interconnect than HSSI. The ASI interface utilises an adaptive equaliser stage in the receive interface and can operate over 150 metres of good quality coaxial cable. The HE1000 ASI interface is fully compatible with the ASI interface presented on Satellite modems.
