push-pull technology for  

distortion-free audio-video quality

Adjustable slope and gain controls 

for easy system balancing

Front panel controls and test point 

enable easy setup and monitoring

Double shielded enclosure provides

CA45-550 Distribution Amplifiers

The 

Pico Macom CA-30RK550 and CA-45RK550 are professional 

 

re-broadcast grade push-pull amplifiers producing signals with extremely low 
noise and harmonic distortion.  In the 

CA-45RK550, the state-of-the-art hybrid 

amplifier module is preceded by a single transistor stage preamplifier to achieve 
the total gain of 45dB. The amplifiers are capable of 82 channel operation over 
the 54-550MHz range. These rack-mounted amplifiers make excellent headend 
launch amplifiers and are frequently used in conjunction with 

Pico Macom’s  

passive headend combiners (

PHC12G or PHC24G) to overcome losses 

 

associated with signal combining in CATV and SMATV systems.  Also, the 
CA30RK550 and CA45RK550 are ideally suited for amplifying the cable input 
prior to 

Pico Macom’s CEF channel elimination filter in applications requiring 

“mix-and-match” channel applications or those requiring local insertion.  

Pico 

Macom backs up this product with its industry leading 5-year limited warranty.
