Dual-mode 10-way 3-band amplifier Instruction Manual
PROAMP310X
www.blake-uk.com/310x
This versatile product is an addition to the PROception range of multi-way distribution amplifiers. The
unit has two modes of operation, allowing it to be used either as a straightforward 10-way aerial
amplifier for off-air signal distribution, or as a return-path amplifier with its UHF input fed from the loop
through output (RF OUT-2) of a Sky* satellite receiver or similar device. In its return-path mode full
support is provided for remote infrared receivers (eyes). The use of F connectors makes the amplifier
easy to install and helps to ensure good system screening.
All these amplifiers are compliant with the Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU and meet the
harmonised standard EN 303 354 for Class 0. As such they work on ALL current UK DTT channels
including channel 60, are resilient to interference and overloading, and cope with multiple carriers. In
cases of strong LTE interference a separate 4G filter should be fitted. These are supplied free by at800,
or higher performance models can be purchased from www.blake-uk.com. (To pass channels up to and
including channel 59 use PROLTE1/59, or if channels 58 and 59 are not required, use PROLTE1/57).
Features:
•
Separate filtered inputs for the FM radio, DAB (Band III) and UHF TV frequency bands.
•
Ten independent outputs.
•
Dual-mode operation: standard signal distribution amplifier; or return-path amplifier.
•
Flexible powering options: local or remote power supply location.
•
Automatic mode selection with 2-colour LED mode and power indicator:

Green - Mode 1, Orange - Mode 2, Red - Power.
•
Bandpass filters on VHF inputs. UHF input filtered below 470 MHz to reduce risk of interference
from CB, private mobile radio, TETRA, etc.
•
Line-power for preamplifier available at UHF input.
•
Suitable for both digital and analogue applications, fully DDT-compatible.
•
Channels 61-68 can be used for locally modulated signals.
Mode 1 aerial amplifier mode (green LED): in this mode the unit functions as a straightforward multi-
way amplifier for distribution of off-air and/or locally generated RF signals around a building. The input
signals will usually come directly from the corresponding aerials. Line-power (5V) for a masthead or
similar preamplifier is available at the UHF input in this mode.
Powering Options
Line-power for this amplifier (12—15V DC) can be supplied via any of the ten outputs. Alternatively, if a
mains supply is available near the amplifier, a suitable local AC/DC mains power adaptor may be used
instead of line-powering.
In Mode 1, no power is passed to unpowered outputs and the return-path amplifier and remote control
functions are completely disabled.
Note (Mode 1): this amplifier is not suitable for powering from the aerial sockets of DVB-T (DTT or Freeview†)
receivers. The voltage and current available from such receivers (usually 5V at 30mA) are insufficient.
Fig.1(a) shows a typical Mode 1 application with power provided by a PROPSU112X power unit
connected in one of the output lines.
Fig.1(b) shows a similar installation to Fig.1(a), except that a PROMHD11L masthead preamplifier is
used to boost the UHF input signals and power is provided by an AC/DC power adaptor adjacent to the
amplifier. This diagram also shows how one or more of the output lines can be split to provide
additional outlet points.
