Description:
The AP Series are professional quality, agile heterodyne processors convert any channel in the 50 to 806 MHz (7 to 43 MHz with Option 17) frequency range to any channel in the 50 to 550/750 MHz (7 to 550/750 MHz with Option 04) frequency range.
The AP Series is ideal for moving an off-air channel (VHF or UHF) or any single channel source to any unused channel (broadcast or CATV, including HRC and IRC assignments) in the system. Channel selection is accomplished with the use of simple to use front panel accessible dip switches. These processors have wide range of standard and optional features that make them very suitable for advanced CATV systems.
All models feature rock solid, synthesized frequency control, with a tuning increment of 250 kHz. True vestigial sideband SAW filtering guarantees superior broadcast picture quality. Two SAW filters are used to ensure proper adjacent channel rejection. Delayed AGC circuitry automatically compensates for input signal variations. These processors have an external IF loop, which allows interfacing with signal scrambling systems. The AP Series utilizes a standby carrier oscillator to provide a blank picture when the input level drops below usable level. This prevents a snowy picture from being delivered to the distribution network in the event of signal degradation or complete loss of picture. |
