Frequency Response Maximum peak to peak variation measured between any two points in the operational bandwidth at a given location in the CATV plant. The maximum allowable peak to valley variation is N/10 + 1 dB - tilt. Measured with diplex filters, a 1 dB attenuator to simulate a valued equalizer insertion loss, and an interstage pad 1S board with jumper. Minimum Full Gain Minimum input to output station gain with automatic control module set to highest output. Minimum full gain is measured with diplex filters, a 1 dB attenuator to simulate a valued equalizer insertion loss, and an interstage pad 1S board with jumper. Typical Operating Gain Minimum input to output station gain allowing for the proper reserve gain for the automatic control module or thermal network where appropriate. Typical operating gain is measured in same test configuration as minimum full gain. Automatic Slope and Gain Equivalent cable variation at the upper frequency. Slope is the amount of cable equalization provided in the amplifier. The slope is specified as the difference in gain between the highest and lowest frequencies. Internal Station Tilt Slope of the amplifier station. Noise Figure Measured for both the highest and lowest channels at operation gain with diplex filters, a 1 dB attenuator to simulate a valued equalizer insertion loss, and an interstage pad 1S board with jumper. Additional Information can be found in Section L - Glossary Hum Modulation Hum and low frequency distortions are "undesirable signal modulations" related to power line or the video vertical sync frequencies. This is caused by variations in the visual carrier amplitude at power line frequency or its harmonic. Hum modulation is measured at maximum current passing. Cross Modulation A form of distortion when the modulated video components or any video carrier of any other channel will cross modulate or couple to the video carrier of any other channel in the operational bandwidth. This appears as undesirable beats in another carrier. Measured at stated reference levels using NCTA standard methods with synchronous square wave modulation. Composite Triple Beat Composite third order distortion is the amplitude distortion of desired signals caused by third order curvature of non-linear transfer characteristics in system equipment. CTB is the ratio expressed in dB of the peak level of the RF signal to the peak of the average level of the cluster of distortion components centered around the carrier. CTB is measured with CW carriers, carrier to average CTB, unmodulated carriers on any channel. Composite Second Order Composite second order distortion is the amplitude distortion of a desired signal caused by the second order curvature of the non-linear transfer characteristic occurring in the CATV system equipment. It is the ratio, expressed in dB, of the peak level of the desired RF signal to the peak of the cluster of distortion components falling in the sideband of the desired signal at .75 and 1.25 MHz around the carrier.

In the intermediate configuration, the trunk signal is passed through the module (without amplification) and is tapped off, equalized, amplified and routed to a bridger module. In the terminating configuration, the input signal is equalized, amplified and routed to a bridger module. The module is configured for intermediate or terminating operation by means of a plug-in passive device. The module is variable, meaning a plug-in passive can be plugged into the module, allowing the user to select a splitter, 8 dB or 12 dB coupler in the intermediate mode. A plug-in jumper is selected to place the module in terminating mode. This module is reversible, allowing signal directors to be positioned such that the station RF direction can be either left-to-right or right-to-left.

Model 372741 provides 14 dB of gain and utilizes transistor technology; model 466545 provides 20 dB of gain and utilizes hybrid technology. The reverse amplifier module installs in the bottom of a standard trunk housing next to the power supply and provides gain for reverse trunk transportation and origination of feeder signals. Plug-in drivers allow for thermal slope and gain compensation of various lengths of cable. The single reverse amplifier with thermal compensation functions both as a transportation amplifier where trunk-only or both trunk and feeder may be activated or as a terminating amplifier where feeder-only is required. In a terminating station where trunk is not activated or in a transportation station where feeder is not activated, gain can be increased by removing the plug-in combiner and installing a jumper module including combiner as standard equipment. The amplifier is designed to be compatible with computer-operated reverse disconnect systems. Ordering Information Order No.

Description The distribution amplifier provides a variety of configurations for both trunk and feeder applications. When auto control is used, this station is ideal for fiber to the serving area applications, tapped trunk systems, local area networks, improving feeder stability, or as a cost effective substitute for the terminating bridger. The distribution amplifier is available with push-pull, standard parallel hybrid, PT parallel hybrid, standard feed forward and FT feed forward technologies. The station may be set for manual, thermal regulation or automatic slope/gain control. Housings are available in either two or four port configurations. The four port housing allows level and signal routing through plugin passive devices, mounted on the seizure boards. This reduces the need for connecting external passive devices which lowers the chance for signal leakage and cable pull-out problems. AC bypass and lightning filtering are accomplished on separate seizure boards mounted within the housing. Power passing and blocking are external to the amplifier module so that power is passed through the housing even in the absence of the amplifier module.

Distribution Amplifier Power Supply Module SCIENTIFIC-ATLANTA
Distribution Amplifier Automatic Control Module SCIENTIFIC-ATLANTA
Description The distribution amplifier power supply module is used in the distribution amplifier station to convert station AC input voltage to a well-regulated DC voltage for station powering. The switching regulated supply provides improved efficiency over a standard linear power supply which results in cost savings in operating expense. The switching regulated supply is a constant power device, meaning that it automatically adjusts its internal operating parameters for most efficient use of different levels of voltage and current within a system. The supply automatically determines load power requirements and adjusts its operation so that only that amount of power is provided. Specifications
Output voltage AC input voltage Output current Output ripple Switching frequency (1) 24 VDC 1V 60V to 37V min, 60V system typical 1.2A max. 10 mV peak-to-peak, max. 5 kHz to 20 kHz 20 ms, min. 60% to 70% 1.5 A
Description The distribution amplifier automatic control module is used in the forward system to provide carrier level control of the slope and gain circuits in the distribution amplifier module, and provides AGC systems up to 600 MHz. The automatic control module samples the band of signals of the distribution amplifier output, monitors a high-band carrier (high pilot), and provides error correction input to the slope and gain circuits in the event level changes occur. The closed loop system ensures a constant distribution amplifier output level despite changes in signal level prior to the station. It operates from either modulated carriers by detecting the peak carrier level during the sync interval or from unmodulated CW carriers. The automatic control module features excellent internal temperature stability, total immunity to adjacent channel level changes, total immunity to changes in modulation level or content, true peak carrier detection with either modulated or unmodulated inputs, and simple, accurate set-up.

True Tilt Correction Network SCIENTIFIC-ATLANTA

Description During initial set-up of the system, the true tilt correction network allows conversion of true tilt signals to a flat response. The network is connected between the test point and the field test equipment with a short length of 75 ohm test cable. This results in a flat overall signal amplitude (frequency response observed when the signals are properly tilted). Measurements can thus be made without lengthy, error-producing calculations to ascertain flatness of response. Frequency response: cable equivalent 0.2 dB. Ordering Information

Regal Tap & Passives Ordering Information

Regal is proud to introduce the RMT Multitap which incorporates both Blocking Cap and Continuous Power Bus (CPB) technologies. The RMT taps will not deliver power to the drop, but will provide continuous power and RF signal even with the faceplate removed. When the operator decides to upgrade, or needs to replace a tap faceplate, there will be no service interruption to any subscriber other than those served by that particular tap. The nomenclature for these products will have a "BCP" suffix in the model number to denote the inclusion of both Blocking Caps and CPB technologies ("BC" for Blocking Cap,"P for continuous Power). The CPB kit does not provide power to the drop. Only the Power Passing Upgrade Kit provides power to the drop. This feature will enable operators to provide advanced cable/telephony service to their subscribers by delivering power to Network Interface Devices (NIDs) at the home. Two powering options will be available, either on the same coaxial cable that currently provides RF signal, or down a twisted pair adjacent to the coax. Consult your Telewire Supply Sales Representative for details on these products. Glossary of Terms CPB - Continuous Power Bus: Provides downstream power and RF signal with tap faceplate removed Surge Protection: Optional feature for all line passives (RPI, RLS, RLDC). Shunts voltage surges to ground, protecting the active passive system components. Voltage surges can be from lightning, power supply surges and power grid surges. Blocking Caps: Capacitors that block AC voltages to the drop. This reduces hum mod distortion and reduces damage to the drop.

AUGAT BROADBAND
Multiple Dwelling Amplifier

AUGAT BROADBAND
Description The Signal Stretcher amplifier provides additional gain for long house drops, multiple TV outlets or multiple service requirements at specifications comparable to line extenders. It is also capable of providing quality signals to small apartment and motel distribution systems. To meet a variety of system needs, the Signal Stretcher is available in one output and one-or two-way passive transmission. All versions provide nearly transparent transmission at typical house drop signal levels. They may be used at higher levels for multiple dwelling distribution systems due to the push-pull technology used in their design. The Signal Stretcher features full channel loading for the design bandwidth and is powered by a UL Listed Class II AC transformer or DC power supply that may be remotely located. DC powered units may also be remotely powered up the drop through the output port by using a power inserter (must order DC powered amplifier) Ordering Information
Description The Multiple Dwelling Amplifier is designed for high performance applications with bandwidths up to 550 MHz, for use in apartments, hotels, motels, CATV or MATV distribution networks or any other application where one-way transmission with 30 dB gain is needed. In addition, the MDA may be used as a general purpose wideband amplifier in the repair shop or as a system sweep post amplifier. The MDA is designed with push-pull hybrids which are installed in plug-in sockets to make down-time short and replacement quick and easy. A die-cast aluminum housing ensures excellent heat transfer from the active devices for lone life and reliable service. The housing can accommodate one or four output ports. To address system balancing, the MDA offers optional plugin equalizers and attenuator pads. The MDA is equipped with a UL Listed Class II transformer that is remotely located from the amplifier.

Features Hybrid IC circuitry for high output with low distortion Designed for critical applications requiring high gain Exceeds FCC specs for both conducted and radiated interference at full output level External fuse for ease of replacement LED pilot light Line transient protection Available in 300, 450 and 550 MHz bandwidths Description The BIDA is a completely self-contained indoor distribution amplifier designed specifically for signal distribution systems which use a "cable drop" as a signal source. Three models are available: the 5400-35 with 50 to 300 MHz bandpass, the 540045 with 50 to 450 MHz bandpass and the 5400-55 with 50 to 550 MHz bandpass. The basic amplifier is configured for oneway operation. Optional field installable modules provide twoway capability with either a passive or active sub-channel return path. The BIDA has a flat operating gain of 51 dB which can be adjusted down to 41 dB with the variable attenuator. Gain and slope controls are located on the front panel for easy set-up and adjustment. Two -30 dB back-matched test points are provided to permit testing without interruption of service. In applications where input signal levels are too high or where greater cable equalization is necessary, the BIDA can be reconfigured by using plug-in attenuators and cable slope equalizers to meet particular system requirements. Push-pull, hybrid IC modules enable the BIDA to operate at high output levels while retaining low distortion characteristics. The aluminum chassis is designed to provide excellent heat dissipation, thus allowing operation at high ambient temperatures with no degradation of performance or reliability.

BIDA-RF Return Filter Set Plug-in return filter adds passive reverse path to BIDA series amplifiers. Each BIDA-RF contains a high pass (50-450 MHz) and a low pass (5-30 MHz) filter element with a common (5-450 MHz) connecting point. A sheet metal cover is mounted over the circuitry to improve stability and prevent accidental de-tuning during shipping, handling and installation. The filters separate sub-band (return) signals from VHF (forward) signals for processing within the amplifier. Two identical BIDA-RF units in the set make an amplifier bi-directional. A passive return jumper wire is supplied to complete the sub-band path. BIDA-RA Return Amplifier Plug-in return amplifier adds reverse path gain to BIDA series amplifiers. The BIDA-RA is a sub-band (5-30 MHz) amplifier with 24 dB gain. It contains a 12 dB variable slope control and a 12 dB variable gain control. A BIDA-RF return filter set (54011) is required to complete the system.

Features Hybrid IC circuitry for high output with low distortion Temperature stability range of -18C to +60C Front panel gain and slope controls for easy adjustment Low 40 MHz band edge Aluminum chassis designed for superior heat dissipation to ensure component reliability Exceeds FCC specs for both conducted and radiated interference at full output level External UL listed power transformer with 6 ft. twin lead wire Line transient protection Compact size for minimum mounting space Mounting holes spaced to fit standard equipment rack rail Description The Blonder-Tongue ACA is a broadband indoor distribution amplifier designed specifically for CATV and SMATV RF distribution systems which use a "cable drop" as a signal source. Two models are available: the 5430 with 40 to 300 MHz bandpass, and the 5440 with 40 to 450 MHz bandpass. Both are designed for apartment complex applications. The ACA has a flat operating gain of 30 dB which can be adjusted down to 22 dB with the variable attenuator. Gain and slope controls are located on the front panel for easy set-up and adjustment. A push-pull hybrid IC module enables the ACA to operate at high output levels while retaining low distortion characteristics. The aluminum chassis is designed to provide excellent heat dissipation, thus allowing operation at high ambient temperatures with no degradation of performance or reliability.
