LBA2030 L band amplifier

LBA2030 L Band Amplifier & Power Inserter

The Drake LBA2030 is a high quality L Band amplifier with AGC designed to amplify and level the frequency range of 950 to 2250 MHz used for direct broadcast satellite signal reception applications. It supplies up to 30 dB of signal amplification at or below AGC threshold. The built-in power inserter supplies 18 VDC at up to 350 mA to the LNB input to power to 'stacked' type low noise block converters.

  • AGC function ensures correct and consistent signal level.
  • Two outputs, one at a nominal -20 dBm and the other at a nominal -30 dBm.
  • Provides a gentle slope compensation of 4 to 5 dB over the frequency range.
  • Built-in power inserter.
  • Perfectly matches the Drake LBS2250 L band splitter and combiner in headend transcoder applications.
  • Three year limited warranty.
