MODEL 2282-122-21 Redundant Amplifier
1.0 General
1.1 Equipment Description
The Model 2282-122-21 Redundant Amplifier, 0.95-2.15 GHz, +33 OIP3, monitors and controls internal
amplifiers configured in a 1:1 or 1:2 redundant configuration. Variable attenuators can adjust the gain of each
amplifier by 30 dB in 0.5± 0.5 dB steps by the front panel controls and the M&C. Front panel LEDs indicate
power, status (online, standby, alarm), and mode (auto, manual, remote). The amplifiers’ current is measured
and a fault is signaled if the current deviates from user selected thresholds. Multi-function switches select Auto,
Manual or Remote operation, priorities for 1:2, and the signal path in the Manual mode. Remote operation via
the RS232/RS485 M&C interface allows selection of priorities (1:2) and the signal path. Ethernet is available as
an option. An LCD display shows each amplifier’s current, and Attenuation settings. Connectors are type N,
female for the RF in and out signals, DB9 for monitor and control. The 2282-122-21 is housed in a 1RU chassis
and is powered by redundant power supplies fed by separate, fused 100-240 ±10% VAC AC input connectors.
