Modular Headend Redundant Amplifier

Model Number:

MCS-114

Description:

Modular Headend Redundant Amplifier

Our MCS-114 is designed for use when redundancy of amplification or signal sources is needed.  Its modularity features make it possible to build a variety of devices, including our RF Sensing Switch, RFS-002, any of our HAF/HAR series of amplifiers, and our high quality splitter, 2WSS-E with equalizer.

All units are housed in a single 19” 1RU chassis, eliminating the need for a separate chassis for switching and amplification functions, significantly saving both rack space and cost.

Each MCS-114 includes:  two power supplies and two amplifiers in a redundant configuration; connections for remote control and monitoring; front panel indication, and manual controls. 

Additional functions of the MCS-114 devices are: monitoring and controlling primary and secondary sources of signals; monitoring amplifier output signal levels; insertion of alarm channels, and many more.
