Proception Dual-Mode 3-Band 10-Way Amplifier
Supplied Complete with power supply proPSU112X

PROception proAMP-X series is a new kind of signal distribution amplifier which provides functions previously requiring two different amplifier types. X-series products have two distinct modes of operation and can be used either as straightforward multi-way signal distribution amplifiers – ‘aerial amplifiers’ – or as ‘return-path’ amplifiers. The products address the need to provide good-quality off-air terrestrial signals to all receivers in a household prior to Digital Switchover (DSO). Where digital satellite is used as the main reception platform X-series amplifiers allow the satellite set-top box's modulated analogue output to be distributed to other rooms along with the digital and analogue terrestrial signals. Remote infrared receiver 'eyes', can be used to control a Sky receiver or Sky+ PVR remotely over its built-in 7 MHz return-path remote control interface.

proAMP310X – feature summary

* Dual-mode 3-input 10-output distribution amplifier with automatic mode selection.
* Ideal for house-wide digital and analogue VHF radio and UHF TV signal distribution. Freeview and/or Sky TV – ready for DSO.
* Separate filtered inputs for FM radio, DAB (Band III) and UHF TV bands.
* Excellent out-of-band filtering to reduce the risk of interference problems from CB, PMR, TETRA, etc.
* Flexible powering options – local or remote power supply location.
* New compact moulded housing with discreet black finish.
* Two-colour LED power and mode indicator.
* Equipotential bonding terminal for compliance with BS EN 60728-11.

Operation summary – Mode 1 (aerial amplifier mode, green LED indication)

* Return-path and remote control functions are disabled in this mode. No ‘eye power’ is present on the outputs.
* This mode is selected by powering the amplifier on any output, or on the local DC power port.
* 5 volt power for a masthead preamplifier is available at the UHF input in this mode.
* Use this mode for the multi-digital household where Sky remote control is not required.

Operation summary – Mode 2 (return-path mode, orange LED indication)

* TV return-path and remote control functions are enabled; ‘eye power’ present on all outputs.
* This mode is selected by powering the amplifier via its UHF input, or on the local DC power port. (When using local powering a 9 V ‘sense voltage’ from the digital satellite receiver of PVR must be present at the UHF input to select Mode 2.)
* ‘Eye power’ provided at each output. Compatible with PROception proSAT1EYE.
* Use this mode when distributing from Sky ‘second outlet’ and remote control is required.
