Its die-cast aluminium chassis and GaAs-MMIC transistor technology combine to produce a compact unit with high linearity and efficiency, suitable for trunk and distribution applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe amplifier includes separate forward-path gain adjustment (0–18 dB range), slope adjustment, and return-path gain adjustment, allowing the installer to compensate for cable loss characteristics across the full frequency range. A noise figure below 7 dB maintains signal quality even at the end of a long cable run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 input, 1 output — no test output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForward gain (85–862 MHz): 21 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReturn path gain (5–65 MHz): 10 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttenuation range (forward and return path): 0–18 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlope attenuation range (forward path): 0–15 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGaAs-MMIC transistor for high linearity and efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie-cast aluminium chassis for compact, robust construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMains powered at 230 VAC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eProduct Benefits\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparate forward and return path gain adjustments allow precise optimisation of both downstream and upstream signal levels in two-way CATV networks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlope adjustment compensates for frequency-dependent cable attenuation, ensuring flat signal response across the full forward band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGaAs-MMIC technology delivers high maximum output level (118 dBµV) with low noise for reliable reception at the subscriber end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie-cast aluminium housing provides mechanical robustness and effective heat dissipation in continuous-operation installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow 6 W power consumption reduces operating costs in always-on CATV head-end installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Outputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTest Output:\u003c\/strong\u003e No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForward Gain (85–862 MHz):\u003c\/strong\u003e 21 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReturn Path Gain (5–65 MHz):\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAttenuation Range (forward\/return path):\u003c\/strong\u003e 0–18 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlope Attenuation Range (forward path):\u003c\/strong\u003e 0–15 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNoise Figure:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt;7 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInput\/Output Return Loss:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt;10 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax.
