The shipping cost of your order is estimated upon checkout. The fee is generally R150 within South Africa for orders that are under R5 000. For orders above R5 000, shipping is free within South Africa.
Shipping times are generally:
Shipping fees include handling and packing fees as well as postage costs and import duties into South Africa. Although shipping includes insurance, the package/s will be dispatched at your own risk. However, due to the nature of the items being purchased, special care is taken to protect fragile objects. Boxes are amply sized by either the manufacturer or by the staff of Pro Gear SA, and your items are well-protected.
The estimation is performed according to the weight of items (the larger of either physical or volumetric), where the item originates, and is calculated live to get the best rates possible. Shipping items are bundled together per supplier, where possible, in order to save on shipping costs. (We have negotiated discount rates with shipping companies).
We deliver orders anywhere in South Africa. Should you be outside of South Africa, we can still arrange delivery to you. Please contact us directly before placing your order, so we can confirm shopping costs.
Payment may be made via Visa, MasterCard, Debit and Credit cards, as well as Instant EFT (SID). All our payments are secure and handled by Paygate and FNB. We have negotiated a merchant account in order to keep these costs as low as possible. Another option is for you to handle your own bank EFT transfer, as this will carry an even lower processing fee. (Place an order, receive your invoice and pay it using the order number as a reference). Orders will only be processed once the funds are reflected in Pro Gear SA's account.
Pro Gear SA does not directly offer financing for any of the products available on our website. However, we know that professional gear can be expensive. That's why we've teamed up with South Africa's top finance providers, so you can get the gear you need today and get your production started.

SETUP OPTION 1: MFL-TT / MFL-RR (2 channels = 1 x diversity receiving)
SETUP OPTION 2 : MFL-TTRR / MFL-RRTT (4 channels = 1 x diversity transmitting & 1 x diversity receiving)
SETUP OPTION 3: MFL-TTTT / MFL-RRRR (4 channels = 2 x diversity receiving)
NOTE: System is customisable and designed as per the requirements of each client / projecy

MFL provides wideband optical link for up to 4 RF channels combined in a single fiber thanks to CWDM technology.
It is designed to allow for a flexible and modular configuration thanks to a mainboard that can be fitted with up to 4 plug-in boards that can be any combination of two types:
Example: MFL-TTTT is 4 laser transmitter unit that works with a MFL-RRRR with 4 channel receiver. Other configurations are also possible like MFL-RR / MFL-TT or a mixed like a MFL-RRTT with both receiver and transmitter channels.
The system is composed by a MFL-BASE (1U rack frame) and some optional/modular boards to build the desired configuration.
MFL-BASE can have up to 4 optical modules that can be either TX or RX (factory installed) to adapt the unit to several configurations.
To simplify the usage we give a name of the final configuration that easy identify the CWDM channels and a color code for the RF connectors (N type).
We use as default 4 laser wavelength although the CWDM standard can allow to use much more with a 20nm wavelength separation:
Channel | Wavelength | Color Identifier |
51 | Wavelength 1510 nm laser, single mode | Blue |
53 | Wavelength 1530 nm laser, single mode | Green |
55 | Wavelength 1550 nm laser, single mode | Yellow |
57 | Wavelength 1570 nm laser, single mode | Orange |
For example:
Following the main code and option that can build up a MFL system:
| # | Code | Description |
1 | MFL-BASE | WIDEBAND RF OVER FIBER MAINBOARD 19' 1U Rack units , aluminium frame Oled display - Ethernet - failsafe switch - realtime clock AC Powered 230V | |
2 | MFL-RX | Optical RX module for MFL (CWDM) | |
3 | MFL-TX | Laser TX module for MFL (CWDM) | |
Optional | 4 | MFL-DC | Insulated DC power with battery monitor (10÷28Vdc) |
5 | MFL-OMX | Module Mux/Demux for 1:4 CWDM | |
6 | MFL-BF1 | RF filter 25MHz tuning range over 404÷788 MHz |
LOW NOISE DESIGN to allow great coverage when used to remote receiving antennas
HIGH INTERFERENCE IMMUNITY thanks to high IIP3 design and a control/compensation of gain
EASY TO USE thanks to integrated RF/optical power meter and optical power compensation
REAL-TIME CLOCK with a backed-up static RAM to monitor and record internal RF levels and service data (i.e. laser life time)
TX UNIT (remote RF reception, i.e. diversity antennas):
RX UNIT (RF transmission, i.e. single-frequency master/slave areas)
REMOTE MONITOR/CONTROL thanks to a data link on Ethernet 10/100 Base Tx
RF INPUT / OUTPUT
