AMP x8 Distribution Amplifier for EOC 2000 incl. power supply unit

Gigabit over Coax - AMP X8 Distribution Amplifier - For the central distribution of DVB-C and network data in buildings.

The AMP X8 distribution amplifier ensures the central integration and establishment of the Gigabit network via the coaxial cable, from the transfer point in building installations (NE4). The feed of the DVB-C signal is also provided via the AMP X8 and is available in coexistence with the established network, e.g. for Internet data on the coaxial cable. The AMP X8 can accommodate up to 8x G.hn modules and supply them via these eight separate segment strings in the house distribution. Each line can be supplied with several EOC2000 flush-mounted sockets, via which the DVB-C signal and the network signal are available. The EOC2000 flush-mounted sockets are directly supplied with DC voltage via the distribution amplifier, so that no further installations, such as plug-in power supply units, are necessary at the EOC flush-mounted sockets.

The pluggable G.hn modules deliver 2 gigabit (1700 megabits net) data rate per coaxial segment string, whereby the individual coaxial segments are isolated from each other. For an interconnection of all segments or only certain ones, a connection can be made via a commercially available switch.

An applied DVB-C signal from any source can be amplified for each segment, so that different cable lengths in the house distribution can be compensated, and skew correction is also possible via the built-in equaliser per line. A measuring device is available in the unit itself for skew correction and distribution amplification per line. The individual strings can be individually adjusted by means of a visual level display. This minimises the installation effort and service costs for the installation. Elaborate mounting boards and installations are no longer necessary, and existing coaxial cable can be reused, even in old buildings.

When installing more than 8 segment strings or a very large number of flush-mounted sockets, several AMPs can be easily cascaded.

Note: The AMP X8 version for EOC2000 flush-mounted sockets uses the frequency range 2 - 199 MHz for the network data. In this frequency range, there may be collisions with existing DVB live transmissions by cable providers.

If an Internet access via DOCSIS (cable modem) is used, it must be decoupled beforehand via a commercially available splitter and modem.

If a DVB signal is required via broadband cable and the frequncies up to 200 MHz are used for DVB live transmission which are relevant, a lower bandwidth can also be provided via the AMP X8 for EOC1000 flush-mounted sockets.
