GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Whyte WATS-930 is a 8 x SAT and 1 x Terrestrial Launch Amplifier that
is compact and powerful. It may be utilised as a Launch Amplifier or as a Line
Amplifier, and can be powered directly via the 18V Auxiliary Input or line
powered via the HH and HL trunk lines.
For ease of installation, the WATS-930 Launch Amplifier can be connected
directly to a cascade Series 9 Multiswitches using F-type couplers.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The WATS-930 Launch Amplifier provides a gain of 30dB on all Satellite inputs
and a gain of 24dB on Terrestrial.
Whyte™ Series 9 Launch Amplifiers can be powered directly via the 18V
Auxiliary Input or may be line powered via the HH and HL trunk lines.
A Whyte™ Power Supply Unit may be connected to the 18V Auxiliary Input
which will pass power upwards and downwards via the HH and HL lines. All IF
trunk lines are DC passing in both directions.
The IF inputs provide power to the LNB irrespective of whether the amplifier
is powered via the Auxiliary Input or line powered via the HH and HL inputs
or outputs. An LED is provided to indicate that power is present.
A switchable 12V supply is provided to power a mast amplifier via the
Terrestrial input if required. If a mast amplifier is not present this should be
left in the off position.
An F connector tool should be used to fit the IF input and output cables. Do
not over tighten the F connectors as this is unnecessary and risks damaging
the amplifier.
