DA-500

100 to 600 MHz DISTRIBUTION AMPLIFIER

The DA-500 is a general purpose isolation amplifier designed to distribute frequencies from 100 to 600 MHz. This amplifier is engineered to ensure the distibuted signals are not degraded through long transmission lines. The amplifier has two inputs, each driving six outputs. The instrument is equipped with signal monitor LEDs to indicate faults. The DA-500 is available in a 1U, 19-inch rackmount enclosure, powered by AC with optional DC backup.
