4.3.9
Low or No Power Output (RF Test) (Schematic Diagram No.
10034514)
NOTE: The DC Tests specified in Section 4.3.8 should be completed before conducting the RF tests specified
in the following sections.
1.
The Model 250S1G6’s typical gain response at 0 dBm input and -20 dBm input is shown in Figures 4-1
and 4-2. The actual gain may vary considerably from that shown in Figure 4-
1 but should be ≥ 55.5 dBm.
Figure 4-
2 should be ≥
58 dBm.
NOTE: If the overall gain is low, the amplifier chain can be separated
at the input of A3 Four-Way Splitter.

Phase matching must be maintained from the input of the A3 Four-Way Splitter to the inputs of the A29
Sixteen-Way Combiner; if coaxial cables are removed, they must be reinstalled in the same locations from
which they were removed. Replacement coaxial cable assemblies must the same lengths as the original ones.
NOTE: If the original gain is low, the amplifier chain can be separated at the input to the A3 Four-Way
Splitter and the gain checked from the input to the A3 Four-Way Splitter to the
RF OUTPUT
connector on the unit’s front panel.
