PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Pico Macom CA-30/550 is a high quality push-pull wall-mounted distribution amplifier producing signals with extremely low-noise and harmonic distortion. This amplifier is capable of 82 channel operation over the 54-550MHz range, and makes an excellent distribution system amplifier in MDU, CATV, and SMATV systems. Because of its extremely low-noise figure and low distortion, the CA30/550 is ideally suited for use in larger networks where amplifier cascading is required. In expanding bi-directional broadband systems, Pico Macom's PIDA series bi-directional amplifiers should be used.
