NOTE
To enable the output levels of RF output ports to be different, you are advised to configure J1 as TAP-8
or TAP-12. In this case, RF OUT2 and RF OUT3 (in group 1) are on the primary path, and RF OUT0
and RF OUT1 (in group 0) are on the secondary path. The level of the primary path is higher than that of
the secondary path.
Suggestions on Configuring the Output Ports and Level Difference of the MA5833
Based on the level planning and application of an HFC network and the design of a traditional
optical receiver amplifier, you can perform configuration in the following scenarios.
l
If 4 RF output ports are required, configure J2/J3 as SPL by default. The reference
configuration of J1 is as follows.

l
If 2 RF output ports are required and the output levels are high, configure J2/J3 as
JUMPER. The output ports are RF OUT3 and RF OUT1. (After this configuration, the
maximum level is 3.5 dB higher than that of 4 output ports.) The reference configuration
of J1 is as follows.
