BA1218 TE

Article number  695005045
The BA1218 TE broadband amplifier is a "last in line amplifier" specially designed for remote powered interactive DOCSIS 3.1 enabled cable television access networks. Designed in GaN technology it offers unrivalled RF performance, high energy efficiency, limited space consumption and "one time right" installation. The modular design offers multiple bandwidth options within its 85 – 1218 MHz downstream and 5 – 204 MHz upstream and as easy as replacing the diplex filters when applicable. All adjustments and settings are realized by the build in microprocessor. These settings can be changed via a smartphone or tablet via a separate bluetooth dongle. Power settings can be adjusted to optimize power consumption in conjunction with the required performance, creating energy costs savings. The unique direct heatsink design, combined with high power efficiency, results in a proven and extremely good MTBF factor resulting in a low TCO. The housing and its construction offer protection according to IP54. This type of housing guarantees optimal heat dissipation and perfect protection of the electronic components. By standard and combined with the electronic operations, auto level control, auto alignment and one way FSK management is available adding additional costs savings during installation and during the complete live span of the product.
