Data Sheet
GainMaker
®
High Output High Gain Balanced
Triple Node 5-42/54-1002 MHz
Description
The GainMaker
®
High Output Node is designed to serve as an integral
part of today’s network architectures, and combines the proven
technologies of both the GainMaker RF Amplifier and Prisma
®
Optical
components. The GainMaker High Output Node is capable of higher
output levels than the standard GainMaker Node. Featuring three RF
output ports, it is the ideal platform for delivering video (digital and
analog) as well as high-speed data services over advanced hybrid
fiber/coax (HFC) networks. With its modular design of fiber receiver,
reverse fiber transmitter and RF amplifier electronics, the GainMaker
High Output Node station can provide a variety of functions required
by advanced networks.
The GainMaker High Output Node accommodates a second forward receiver with an RF switch to accommodate
forward path optical redundancy. Reverse traffic can be combined and routed to FP, DFB, or CWDM reverse
transmitters. The High Gain Balanced Triple (HGBT) launch amplifier module provides three high-level outputs.
Additionally, the node is available with an optional DoCSIS status monitoring transponder. On-board temperature,
automatic gain control (AGC) levels, RF switch position, power supply condition, as well as other
features/parameters can be monitored through this transponder.
Features
●
Capable of higher output levels than standard GainMaker Nodes
●
Forward redundancy available via a second 1310/1550 nm optical receiver (optional)
●
Uses plug-in accessories common to all GainMaker products
●
Cable to Linear EQ in amplifiers I/S EQ spot provides 15.5 dB of internal Linear tilt
●
Local test points and LED indicators on optical receivers, transmitters, and optical interface board simplify
installation and maintenance
●
AGC has thermal mode, eliminating disruptive RF output variation in the event of pilot loss
●
Optional plug-in Status Monitoring
●
Optional 3-state reverse switch (on/off/-6 dB) allows each reverse input to be isolated for noise and ingress
troubleshooting (status monitoring required)
●
Fiber Management tray provides easy access to fiber connections and folds back to provide access to
optical transmitter and receivers
●
Reverse input pad and RF test point for each reverse input port on launch amplifier allow optimum reverse
path design and alignment
