Model ALT-C402-2U-x5x5, Ku-band 1:1 Redundant ALTO Amplifier chassis.
This model benefits from LOCAL CONTROL via push buttons and display and REMOTE CONTROL via ETHERNET port with SNMP and web browser interface. It benefits from forced air cooling trays and dual redundant power supplies for reliability in service.
2U high x 450mm deep x 19" wide shelf with 50Ω impedance connectors (SMA).
Available module types are specified within the datasheet.
Typical Applications
- Front end RF chain
- Providing cable loss compensation for teleports
- TVRO and head-ends.
The success of ETL's Alto Amplifiers means that the range of different modules/requirements is growing very fast. Rather than proliferating new chassis model numbers, we have updated our model numbering scheme to split chassis (many of which are common) and modules.
