AMPLIFIERS - 8 Port Multimedia Drop Amplifiers

PCT's 8-Port MA2 drop amplifier has improved performance and ultra-low noise amplification of broadband signals for subscriber drop installations. The 8-Port Amplifier provides better return loss performance, enhanced shielding protection, and IEEE B3 6kV, 3000 amp combination wave surge withstand on all ports for superior lightning protection. All “F” ports also include PCT’s patented Digital Seizure Mechanism (DSM) for superior center conductor retention, electrical performance, and additional protection against transient surges.

General Specifications

• 1, 2, or 4 output ports available

• Drop-line powering capability via optional power
  inserter PCT-MPI-1G

• Direct powering capability via "PWR IN" F-Port
  using included wall transformer

  machined brass, nickel plated input and output
  connectors

• Operating temperature between -40 to 60° C
  (-40 to 140° F)

Features and Benefits

• Lowest distortions performance available

• Patented DSM seizure
  technology provides
  increased spring retention for
  better surface contact

• Gold-plated, beryllium copper construction
  for better corrosion resistance, impedance
  matching and less common path distortion

• 6 kV surge withstand on all “F” ports
  (both A3 and B3 versions available)

• Patented spark gap improves surge withstand
  capabilities, directs surge to ground before
  entering the housing and circuit board

• 6 KV surge withstand (B3) on the power adapter

• SCTE-compliant sealed “F” ports

• Lightweight powder coated and weather sealed
  housing for superior corrosion protection

• Local or remote powered
