AMD02

UHF/VHF Distribution Amplifiers with 5G/4G Filter and DC Pass

130.030UK

Introduction

A range of Distribution amplifiers with built in 4G LTE filter, designed to improve the quality of audio and video by amplifying weak VHF/UHF signals and distributing them across a designated area. Suitable for both professional and domestic installations and fully compatible with Digital Terrestrial/Satellite/Cable TV and DAB/FM radio signals.

Features

  • Fully screened amplifier compatible with Digital Terrestrial/Satellite/Cable TV and DAB/FM radio signals
  • Integrated LTE signal filter avoids interference and channel loss from 4G mobile signals.
  • Coaxial socket connection, F socket adaptors included to allow F-Type connection.
  • Built in low noise amplifier with wideband output.
  • Built in surge protection – LED lights when a power surge is detected.
  • Short circuit protection – LED illuminates when a short circuit is detected on an output.
  • Maximum output limiter prevents overload.
  • High gain output for additional distribution connection.
  • Separate inputs for VHF and UHF.
  • DC pass allows the control of satellite via Magic Eye remote extender (124.157UK).
  • Side mounted terminals allow easy cable management.

Installation

Before installation please ensure all devices to be connected to the amplifier are switched off and disconnected from the mains. The unit is designed to be connected via coaxial connectors, although f-type adaptors are also supplied for additional compatibility. On the back of the casing there are also two mounting holes which allow the unit to be fixed to the wall.

AV:Link distribution amplifiers are designed to amplify weak, poor quality signals and distribute them to different destinations. For installations that are close to a TV transmitter or any other form of radio transmitter or high-power source, you may experience blocking or a frozen picture. In this instance an attenuator is required for turning down the signal to suitable levels for TV viewing.

The above diagram shows AMD08 receiving TV signals from the Satellite receiver and FM/DAB aerial and distribute the signals to 4 individual hi-fi and 4 TV units. The AMD series amplifier is designed with DC pass function. All 4 TV’s can also be set up with a “Magic eye” (remote extension unit) to allow remote control of the satellite receiver when the TV is not the same room. This can only be done when you connect the RF2 output to the UHF input of the amplifier.

Note: only one satellite channel can be viewed at any time from the Satellite receiver.

It is also suitable for upgrading or replacing existing UHF/VHF signal distribution units, simply reconnect the existing connector from the previous unit to the AMD amplifier. Ensure the UHF aerial is connected to the UHF input of the amplifier and FM/DAB aerials are connected to the VHF input of the amplifier. For loft distribution installation please ensure the unit is kept away from moisture and water.
