Amplifiers are designed to amplify TV signals in cable television systems. The presence of a return channel and the ability to install a return channel amplifier allows the use of amplifiers in interactive cable TV networks.
The WA-40R amplifier is manufactured from duple GaAs technology “from input to output”, allowing to obtain a higher level of output signal.
