The RF output level from the optical receiver depends on two things with a QuadLink system (with AGC):
1. Optical attenuation between optical transmitter and receiver.
2. Input level on the optical transmitter
The formulas are: Rx channel power = -6dBm - (2*optical_attenuation) - (log10(number of channels)*10)
If the RF input level is less than -15 dBm on the optical transmitter(sum of all carriers power):
Rx channel power = Tx_input_level +9 - (2*optical_attenuation) - (log10(number of channels)*10)
