Introduction
The Motorola STARLINE
®
series of broadband line extenders, BLE*/*, accept a single input and
provide 28 through 32 dB of operational gain (depending on model) to a single output. The
BLE*/* series of line extenders meets Telcordia GR-1098 core voltage surge requirements using
surge waveforms as described in IEEE C62.41. The BLE*/* is also FCC, CE, and CCC approved.
Features of the BLE*/* include:
870 MHz power doubling technology in enhanced gallium arsenide (E-GaAs)
Five different modular diplex filter splits
“Ease of use” ergonomics
60/90 Vac line power option
Thermal and auto-controlled Bode equalization
−20 dB directional coupler test points
Optional return path ingress control and LIFELINE
®
status monitor
Two-way operation capability
15-amp power passing
