Blonder Tongue BIDA Broadband Indoor Distribution Amplifier BIDA 550-50



The Blonder Tongue BIDA 550-50 is a professional quality, broadband, two-way capable, indoor hybrid distribution amplifiers that are designed for RF distribution systems, such as apartment complexes, hospitals, schools, prisons, hotels The BIDA Series are professional quality, broadband, two-way capable, indoor hybrid distribution amplifiers that are designed for RF distribution systems, such as apartment complexes, hospitals, schools, prisons, hotels, and a wide variety of similar applications. The product family has grown significantly in response to customer applications and available hybrid technology. The BIDA Series is ideal for multi-channel RF distribution systems whose input source is a cable drop or the output of a MATV/SMATV/CATV headend. Additionally, the BIDA Series may be used as the launch amplifier in a distribution network. These amplifiers use dual push-pull hybrid modules, capable of delivering high output levels with low distortion, even in systems with over 100 channels of programming. The gain and slope controls are designed between the hybrid modules for optimum noise figure, input return loss and output capability. Test ports for both the input and output are provided for testing signal levels without interrupting service. The BIDA Series come in a rugged, aluminum chassis that provides exceptional heat dissipation. This allows the BIDA Series to be operated at high ambient temperatures with no degradation of performance or reliability. The combination of features and durable construction ensures that the BIDA Series will provide years of reliable, trouble-free service.
