STB3338S 1.2GHZ RF AMPLIFIER


Description

STB3338S is a two-way RF amplifier with 1.2GHz bandwidth, and supports DOCSIS3.1.

STB3338S uses GaAs power doubler gain block, thus ensuring excellent CTB and CSO performance.

STB3338S uses standard JXP plug-in PADs for all adjustments of both attenuation and equalization to reduce spare devices.

STB3338S is an ideal product for upgrading distribution network of cable TV system.


Features

1.2GHz bandwidth

GaAs technology in use

Standard JXP plug-in PADs for all adjustments of both attenuation and equalization

Lightning and surge protection @ RF input and output ports

Second output can be selected flexibly via a splitter or tap

Compact design, small size


Low noise, low power consumption

Note:

1) Gain and Noise Figure measured with 4 dB inter-stage PAD, other EQ and PAD are 0 dB.

2) Distortion performance reference output level is 49 dBmV (single output port) or 45 dBmV (two output ports via a splitter), 4 dB inter-stage PAD, 16 dB inter-stage EQ, 11 dB output tilt from 258 – 1200 MHz. Loaded with 36 PAL D/K CW carriers from 258 – 550 MHz. Digital refers to 550 MHz – 1 GHz loading with QAM carriers at -10 dB relative to analog CW carrier levels.

3) Unless otherwise noted, all specifications reflect typical performance and are referenced to 20°C.
