Page 5: Introduction
1.0 Introduction The HPDA-100RM-A is a High Performance Distribution and Isolation Amplifier with performance exceeding that required to distribute state-of-the-art atomic frequency standards. The HPDA-100RM-A contains one signal distribution module. This module provides five isolated outputs and an output level monitor LED located on the front panel. All the output power levels are monitored and compared to a preset threshold of +7dBm. -
Page 6: Safety And Preparation For Use
2.0 Safety and Preparation for Use The HPDA-100RM-A was designed for indoor use only and is not intended for operation outdoors or in a wet environment. The instrument may be mounted in a standard 19-inch instrumentation rack or may be used on a laboratory bench. -

2.0 Safety and Preparation for Use 2.2 Instrument safety and preparation for use The HPDA-100RM-A is designed to distribute RF signals with a frequency of 80 to 120 MHz . Input and output levels below +7 dBm will trigger a fault condition which can be monitored from the front panel. -
Page 8: Front Panel Description
The monitor LED will be on if all RF outputs of the corresponding module are greater than +7 dBm. RF signal levels less than +7 dBm will trigger a fault condition and the Monitor LED will not light up. However the HPDA-100RM-A will still provide five buffered copies of the RF input signal.

Page 9: Back Panel Description
A RF Signal within the range of 80 MHz to 120 MHz may be connected to the SMA connector labeled INPUT. OUTPUTS Five buffered copies of the RF input signal will be available at the SMA connectors labeled OUTPUTS. Any HPDA-100RM-A output may be used to drive the input of another distribution module.

Page 10: Installation
5.0 Installation 5.1 Connecting power The HPDA-100RM-A ships with a standard North American or European IEC power cord. The instrument may be mounted in a standard 19-inch instrument rack or may be operated on a laboratory bench. Locate the AC POWER entry module on the rear of the enclosure and connect the power cord. -
Page 11: Operation
6.0 Operation Plug the power cord into an appropriate AC power outlet. Once AC power is supplied to the HPDA-100RM-A, the LED on the front panel labeled AC will turn on. The HPDA-100RM-A is designed to distribute signals from 80 MHz to 120 MHz. The RF input has a 50-ohm input impedance. -
