Motorola’s STARLINE® series amplifier, model MB87*/*, leads the industry
The MB87 two-way
amplifier offers 870 MHz
bandwidth capability,
high gain, high output
level, ergonomics, and
superior distortion
performance.
MB87 870 MHz Amplifier
STARLINE Series
BENEFITS INCLUDE:
870 MHz Enhanced Gallium Arsenide (E -GaAs) power
doubling technology
High gain
High output level
Four diplex filter options
Ease-of-use ergonomics
15 dB return loss
60/90 V powering
Meets Telcordia GR-1098-Core voltage surge
requirements using surge waveforms as described in
IEEE C62.41
FCC, CENELEC and CCC approved
Bode equalization (thermal or auto controlled )
15 ampere AC capability
Optional return path ingress control and sta tus monitor
Power factor corrected power supply
Directional coupler –20 dB test points
in features and performance and is designed to meet the needs of today's
expanding broadband communication networks. This two -way capable
dual output amplifier offers high gain, high output levels, ergonomics,
superior distortion performance, four diplex filter options, 15 dB return loss,
and Bode equalization. The MB87*/* also allows opt ional advanced
features such as ingress control switching and status monitoring. A third
output is user-configurable via splitter or directional coupler plug -in. Single
output models are also available.
ENHANCED GALLIUM ARS ENIDE
The MB87 uses Enhanced Gallium Arsenide (E-GaAs) hybrids. This second generation technology provides superior
distortion performance in CTB and CSO over the standard GaAs technology. Compared to silicon and competing GaAs
technology, E-GaAs distortion performance remains linea r at significantly higher output levels. This higher output level
allows the customer to maximize system performance and reduce system costs. We encourage our customers to
contact their Motorola Account Representative to determine the optimal levels for their systems.
HIGH GAIN
The MB87 also offers high gain. This allows the operator to hold existing amplifier locations during system upgrades
thereby reducing system costs.

BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY
The MB87 electronics package can be made backward compatible with the 10 -Amp MB*/* housing by installing the MB 15A Kit or the MB-15A Kit II. These kits contain 50 mil gold plated platform assemblies. This makes it possible for the
amplifier to carry 15 Amperes continuous through the input or out put ports.
FORWARD PATH
The operational gain of the MB87 is 34 dB or 40 dB depending on model , with 15 dB return loss. Output level control is
achieved through the use of an interstage Bode equalizer, which compensates for coaxial cable attenuation cha nges due
to temperature. Equalization may be controlled manually, with a thermal drive unit (model TDU) or with a single pilot
closed loop automatic drive unit (model ADU -* or QADU). Both the TDU and the ADU boards are common to the
STARLINE family of am plifiers (with the exception of the SLE) . ADUs utilize Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) filters for
determining pilot frequency. This improves amplifier stability over temperature.
To further ensure system flexibility, installation ease and maintenance, the am plifier is engineered for compatibility with
standard accessories, such as attenuators, equalizers, ADUs or TDUs, return amplifiers, automotive fuses and FTEC BTA crowbar circuits.
For an optional third output, the MB87 utilizes splitters (model SP) and di rectional couplers (model DC/*). The SP, DC/8,
DC/10, and DC/12 offer superior performance to 1 GHz.
The MB87 uses modular diplex filters, which can be changed for a different frequency split as required. The amplifier is
available with S-split filters for a 5-40 MHz return and a 52 -870 MHz forward band. K-splits (5-42 MHz/54-870 MHz), Jsplits (5-55 MHz/70-870 MHz), and A-splits (5-65 MHz/85-870 MHz) are also available. These same filters can be used
for all US-style Motorola RF distribution amplifiers (models BLE, MB/MBE, BT).
RETURN PATH
High gain return amplifier kits can be ordered which provide 20 dB minimum station gain. Return path equalizers from 0
to 12 dB can be customer selected. Optional features include thermal compensation and ingress con trol switching.
Thermal compensation comes in the form of a plug -in JXP-TH*C, which stabilizes gain and match over temperature
extremes.
Also available is Ingress Control Switching (ICS) in 3 states. This pin diode attenuator circuit can lower levels by 6 dB or
by 38 dB with a controlled slew rate for minimum bit errors. The dual output MB*/* requires two ingress control switches
when ordering this option (one ICS required for each output). The LIFELINE® MiniBridger Amplifier transponder, model
LL-MB-HMS-*/*, is required to operate the Ingress Control Switch from a remote location.
Model Availability
To reduce customer costs and to accommodate customer specific needs, the STARLINE MB 87 can be ordered in a
variety of different models. Please refer to the MB87 ordering information below for options.

Notes:
1. Operating passband of station. Diple x filters are plugged into the electronic chassis.
2. Referenced to the average gain across the stated passband.
3. Minimum full gain at 870 MHz includes loss of equalizer but Bode slope reserves have not been set. Return gain includes loss of SRE -*-4 return
equalizer.
4. Operational gain includes loss of slope reserves as well as equalizer.
5. Amount of Bode slope control range from midpoint (typical setting is -4 dB at 870 MHz @ 20°C). This control should not be used for gain
reduction.
6. Amount of slope created and cable equivalence of fixed interstage equalizer. Interstage equalizer is a plug -in.
7. Noise Figure performance is specified typical. Noise Figure is specified at the cable entry facility of the housing and includes the loss of 1 dB for
the pre-stage equalizer. The return Noise Figure includes the station loss preceding the RF hybrid.
8. Frequencies that relate the picture carriers or passband edges to the specified output levels and tilts.
9. Measured with CW carriers and spectrum analyzer over specified temperature range. References the worst -case channel. Specifications are
compliant with the test methods as stated in NCTA RECOMMENDED PRACTICES FOR MEASUREMENTS ON CABLE TELEVISION
SYSTEMS.
10. Measured with wave analyzer and synchronous, 100% depth modulated channels. References the worst -case channels over specified
temperature range. Specifications are compliant with the test methods as stated in NCTA RECOMMENDED PRACTICES FOR
MEASUREMENTS ON CABLE T ELEVISION SYSTEMS.
11. Composite Second Order distortion refers only to those beat clusters that fall +0.75 MHz and +1.25 MHz above the subject picture carrier. CSO
beat clusters that have a -0.75 MHz and -1.25 MHz relationship to the subject picture car rier are not included in this specification.
12. CCN (Composite, Carrier-to-Noise Ratio) is a 10 log addition of both the Carrier -to-Noise Ratio (CNR) and Carrier -to-Intermodulation Noise Ratio
(CIN).
13. Test points should be used with GFAL adaptor.
14. Match measurement at the station input and output, cable -entry facilities, at the specified passbands for operational gain.
15. Measured with the stated AC Bypass Current.
16. Measured at the power connector.
17. Current draw at +24.0 VDC.
18. AC current is stated in RMS continuous.
19. Group Delay is specified for standard NTSC video, where delay is the delta from picture carrier to 3.58 MHz color subcarrier. Reverse delay is in
a 1.5 MHz bandwidth.
20. Hum Modulation performance is stated typic al. Return band specified from 15 MHz. Hum Modulation (5 MHz to 15 MHz) is –55 dBc.
21. Distortion numbers are worst case over temperature in a cascade.
22. The compressed data loading is QAM carriers and are –6 dB relative to the analog CW carriers.
23. CTB (Composite Triple Beat). At the specified channel loading, Enhanced Gallium Arsenide performance varies on a two point three -for-one
(2.3:1) basis with amplifier output level.
