RF DISTRIBUTION AMPLIFIER
MC-SAMP-41DB
High Output Distribution Amplifier with Active Return Path and 85–1006 MHz Range
The MC-SAMP-41DB is a professional coaxial house amplifier developed for small and medium CATV, MATV and apartment distribution networks. It is designed to reinforce RF signal levels across in-building coaxial infrastructure while maintaining low-noise performance and stable channel quality.
With 41 dB forward gain, selectable interstage gain settings and active return-path capability, the unit can be configured as a line extender or cascade amplifier for trunk-position distribution applications.
The one-board architecture, rotary 1 dB adjustment controls, integrated cable simulator, IP65 Class II housing and zinc diecast construction provide a robust and efficient solution for professional in-building RF distribution.
Key Features
- High-Output RF Amplification Designed for stable CATV and MATV distribution in multi-dwelling premises and compact RF networks.
- 41 dB Forward Gain Provides 41 dB forward gain with selectable interstage gain for line extender or cascade operation.
- Active Return Path Supports upstream operation with return-path mode selection: active, passive or off.
- Precise Signal Control Rotary switches provide 1 dB step adjustment for attenuation and equalisation settings.
- Robust 1 GHz Platform State-of-the-art 1 GHz technology with integrated cable simulator and stable amplifier characteristics.
- Protected Installation IP65 Class II zinc diecast housing with extensive ESD and surge protection for reliable service.
