The isometric immersion that you describe above is the higher dimensional pseudosphere. Now, concerning your final question, I presume that you need to search about isometric immersions of the hyperbolic space $\mathbb H^n$ by means of a warped product representation (of $\mathbb H^n$) into the Euclidean space.

Now, some additional things that you might be interested to:

  1. There are many (explicit in some cases) local isometric immersions from $\mathbb H^n$ to $\mathbb R^{2n-1}$. These can be constructed by using either the Ribaucour or the Bäcklund transformation (for instance, see the papers by Dajczer-Tojeiro and Tenenblat-Terng).
  2. Local isometric immersions of the hyperbolic plane $\mathbb H^2$ into $\mathbb R^3$ imply "local" solutions, that is, solutions that are not defined on the whole $\mathbb R^2$, of the sine-Gordon equation and vice versa. Therefore, it follows from Hilbert's theorem that there is no "global" solution, that is, a solution defined on the whole plane $\mathbb R^2$, of the sine-Gordon equation. Just like in the case of dimension two, the same also happens in the higher dimensional case where now you will end up with a system of PDES (see for instance Dajczer-Tojeiro). We can have local solutions to this system but we don't know if there exists any global. The existence of a global solution would imply the existence of a global isometric immersion of $\mathbb H^n$ into $\mathbb R^{2n-1}$, which would give a non affirmative answer to the major still open problem (in submanifolds) up to this day, which is the following conjectured extension of Hilbert's theorem:

There is no global isometric immersion from $\mathbb H^n$ to $\mathbb R^{2n-1}$

However, the above holds true in some very special cases. For instance:

  • If the immersion is also minimal (the mean curvature vanishes) (see Moore).

I should also mention here that $\mathbb H^2$ admits no minimal immersion in any Euclidean space. (for a proof of this fact see either "Lectures on minimal submanifolds" by Lawson, or Bryant, or Di Scala).

  • (weaker) If the immersion has also bounded mean curvature (see here)
  • (even weaker) If also the length of the mean curvature of the immersion does not go to infinity too fast, that is, exponentially fast (see here)

I also recommend the following:
