The 1.2 GHz GainMaker System Amplifier is available in the following amplifier 
types. 

 

High Gain Dual (HGD) 

The 1.2 GHz GainMaker System Amplifier is available in the following reverse path 
splits. 

 

42/54 MHz 

All 1.2 GHz GainMaker amplifiers are composed of two sections: a base and a lid. The 
lid houses the power supply, optical interface board, fiber management tray, two 
optical receivers, and one optical transmitter. The lid section is interchangeable 
among 1.2 GHz GainMaker amplifiers. See the appropriate product documentation 
for more information. 

The base section of all 1.2 GHz GainMaker amplifiers is unique. The base houses the 
amplifier printed circuit board (PCB), and may also contain one or more of the 
following: 

 

Reverse amplifier board 

 

Amplifier Cover 

The following chapters describe these components along with the amplifier modules. 

 

1.2 GHz GainMaker System Amplifier modules have following characteristics. 

 

EQ and plug-in couplers/splitters have the same footprint as existing products 

 

Spring loaded seizure assemblies allow coax connectors to be installed or 
removed without removing amplifier chassis or spring loaded mechanism from 
the rear of the housing base 

 

-20 dB test points, located electrically outside of the diplex filter, provide for 
testing of forward output signals and reverse input signals without disrupting 
normal operation 

 

Backward compatibility with existing GainMaker System Amplifier housing 
bottoms provides reduced upgrade costs 

 

Housing lids offered with or without external test point 

 

Room for optional status monitoring transponder in housing lid 

 

Direct module plug-in to the housing provides superior amplifier heat sinking
