The BIDA 5400 Series are professional quality, broadband, two-way
capable, indoor hybrid distribution amplifiers. These amplifiers are
ideal for multi-channel RF distribution systems for which the input
source is a “cable drop” or the output of MATV/SMATV/CATV head-
end.
The BIDA-5400 Series is available in either 550 or 750 MHz band-
widths with push-pull hybrid technology. For 2-way operation, option-
al field installable diplexers and return amplifiers are used to provide
either an active or passive 5-30 MHz return. Passive return configu-
rations require only the diplexers, whereas active return requires
installation of both the diplexers and the amplifier.
