3 Overview
3.1 Product Description
The RPAS, RF Return-Path Amplifier - Standard series, is designed to plug into Technetix latest generation Advanced
Intelligent Multi-services Access Platform - the AIMA3000. The RPAS has two independent amplifier circuits and it accepts
return-path RF signals from 5 MHz to 200 MHz through the two RF input ports. The module has an adjustable gain of 10
dB to 30 dB and has dual output ports. Electronic gain and slope controls allow the module to be customised for many
dierent configurations. Microprocessor-based status monitoring and control is available locally and remotely through a
web interface or by using Technetix NMSE (network management software). All module settings are retained in non-volatile
memory to ensure hassle free operation.
3.2 Product Key Features
• Plug-and-play with the AIMA3000 platform
• Return path amplifier (5 MHz to 204 MHz) supports both analogue and digital signal sources
• High linearity, superior low noise profile, and minimal distortion
• Manual gain control (MGC)(1)
• Electronic gain and slope control
• User configurable alarm threshold levels
• Alarm monitoring
• Broadband GaAs amplifier technology
• Remote firmware upgrade and auto upload/download of configuration files through ASMM web interface or
using Technetix NMSE
• FCC, CE, and RCM(2) complaint
(1)It is recommended that the device only uses manual gain control in return path configurations.
(2)See Declaration of Conformity for current status.
