Blonder Tongue

The Broadband Indoor Distribution Amplifier with Power Doubling from Blonder Tongue is a self-contained broadband indoor power-doubling hybrid distribution amplifier with RF bandwidth ranging from 54 to 860 MHz with a 43 dB gain. Designed for CATV and SMATV signal distribution systems using cable drop as a signal source, the unit's return path bandwidth of 5 to 42 MHz is configurable to passive, which is the factory default, or integrated active return.Attenuation over a range of 10 dB is achieved in the forward path and 18 dB in the return path. Testing without interruption of service occurs via two -30 dB back-matched test points. The aluminum chassis allows the unit to be operated at high ambient temperatures since it provides exceptional heat dissipation.Key Features Provides two-way capability with passive or active return path set by field-changeable jumpersAdjustable front-panel gain and slope controlsHybrid IC circuitry for high output and low distortionOptional plug-in fixed equalizer and attenuator capability for input signal conditioningConfigurable integrated return path for passive or active operationInput and output test portsLarge heat sinks for exceptional heat dissipation
