3 Overview
3.1 About the Product
The RF Forward Path Amplifier - Standard (FPAS) is designed to plug into the latest generation of Advanced Intelligent
Multi-services Access platforms - AIMA3000.
The FPAS accepts forward-path RF signals from 45 MHz to 1218 MHz through the RF input port. The module provides an
adjustable gain of 20 dB with a single output port.
Electronic gain and slope controls allow the module to be customised for many situations.
The forward-path version provides Automatic Gain Control (AGC). The FPAS can also be conveniently monitored and
controlled through a computer connected to one of the Ethernet ports via the ASMM module.
All module settings are retained in non-volatile memory to ensure trouble-free operation. Bulk updating, automatic uploading
and downloading of configuration files can be done when using the NMSE web-based management system.
3.2 Product Key Features
■Plug-and-play AIMA3000 platform module
■Forward-path version (45 MHz to 1000 MHz) supports PAL, CENELEC, and NTSC up to 127 channels
■Supports both analog and digital transmissions
■High linearity, superior low noise profile and minimal distortion
■Automatic gain control (AGC) or manual gain control (MGC)
■Electronic gain and slope control
■Configurable alarm thresholds at a customer’s request
■Alarm monitoring through the NMSE and the ASMM’s Web Interface
■Broadband GaAs amplifier technology
■Remote firmware upgrade and auto upload/download of configuration files through the ASMM web interface or using
the NMSE
■Bulk firmware updates through the NMSE
■FCC, CE and RCM(1) compliant
