Preamplifiers and Distribution Amplifiers

Preamplifiers

The function of a preamplifier is to amplify a low-level signal to the original strength of the signal. As an example if your signal loss caused by the length of your coax run or use of splitters is equal to 10db, you can add a 10db preamplifier to receive the original signal strength.

A preamplifier cannot make up for low to no signal at the original location. It can only make up for the signal lost over the coax.

AP Series HDTV Digital Preamplifiers
75 or 300 ohm input and universal housing for use with any off-air TV antenna to stay clean, dry and weather-protected. Zinc-plated steel hardware; all mounting hardware included. Specialized circuitry featuring fast recovery diode that protects against lightning-caused pulses.

Selectable FM trap reduces FM signals (88-108 MHz) -15 dB to prevent overload, tunable FM trap reduces a 3 MHz band width by -12 dB.

Distribution Amplifiers

A video Distribution Amplifier takes a video signal as an input, amplifies it, and outputs the amplified video signal to two or more outputs. The amplified signal makes up for the loss in gain caused by splitting the signal and running it through the distance of the coax.

HDA-200 Distribution Amplifier
The HDA-200 has a single RF input, 24 dB gain, single RF output, with a 5-42 MHz 2-way bypass at +12 dB gain.

The HDA-200 has 0-18 dB gain control and 20 dB "switchable" FM trap to eliminate those offending FM radio stations. These features, when combined with the 12 dB of amplified gain for the 2 way 5-42 MHz return path make the HDA- 200 a superior solution for the technology savvy consumer.

HDA-100 Distribution Amplifier
The Winegard HDA-100 is a single RF input, 15dB gain, single RF output, with a 5-42 MHz 2-way bi-pass at -2 dB loss.
