A professional grade microprocessor-controlled agile audio/video mini-mod-
ulator. This modulator accepts any audio-video baseband television signal and provides a
45dBmV minimum output on CATV channels 2 to 135 (54-860 MHz) while accommodating
HRC and IRC offset frequencies. Channel selection is easily accomplished via channel
up/down buttons located on the front panel while built-in RF muting circuitry prevents inter-
ference during online channel reassignment. features >-90dB out-of-band
carrier-to-noise ratio, allowing virtually unlimited numbers of Mod's to be combined in a
system without the need for external bandpass filtering. Up to 12 or 16 units can be installed
"mix-and-match" in chassis with
mini-modulators or mini-demodulators. Its unique design
enables it to be installed in other manufacturers' mini-mod chassis. The unit's tracking filter
technology and double-heterodyne conversion ensure accurate and spurious-free output.
Uses SAW filtering in conjunction with FCC group delay correction circuitry to
provide superior adjacent channel selectivity. The unit's PLL circuitry in conjunction with the
non-volatile memory contained in the microprocessor ensures easy and reliable channel
selection and restoration. The modulator is shipped with all internal adjustments
preset.
