750 MHz PAL LINE EXTENDER

APPLICATION ARRIS series of 750 MHz PAL Line Extenders are typically deployed in the feeder or tapped portion of the RF network. Configurable as either single or dual output devices, these amplifiers provide a flexible, cost-effective product platform, and are readily adaptable to wide-ranging design applications. ARRIS complement of 750 MHz line extender amplifiers are available in multiple fixed or ASG gain versions.

BENEFITS High performance Easy set up Flexible system design Increases network reach
