• 5-65 MHz Reverse
The Toner two-way apartment house type amplifiers with active return are broadband indoor GaAs-Fet /
Push Pull distribution amplifiers designed for 1 GHz RF distribution systems such as those in Cable
Television Apartments, Hotels, Hospitals and other applications where a high quality, low noise figure
amplifier is necessary to amplify the signals in both the forward and return paths.
Two models are available with two different reverse signal bandwidths 5-42 MHz and 5-65 MHz.
These are all designed with flat operational gain of 35 dB in the forward bandwidth and 18 dB in the
reverse bandwidth. They have an input equalizer in the forward bandwidth for balancing, a forward 20 dB
gain control and a 20 dB reverse gain control.
The amplifiers are powered by a plug in wall type 6 VDC power transformer that is available in either 117
or 230 volt. Internal power supply models are also available with item codes as TDA35-1000/65/IP.
