Agile Audio/Video Modulators

The AM Series includes professional quality, agile

audio/video modulators. These units provide audio

and video modulated RF carrier on any channel in

the 50~550MHz frequency range. Agile channel

selection permits on-the-fly channel changes and

reduces the need for large inventories of channelized

products. These modulators have a wide range of

standard and optional features that make them very

suitable for advanced SMATV and CATV systems.

The AM Series takes baseband audio and video and

modulates these signals onto any channel in the

50~550MHz frequency range. Featured options:

4.5MHz audio input, video input, BNC connector,

sub band output, video AGC, spectrum inversion,

balanced audio input, 600ohm, composite video and

4.5MHz audio input, Z-TAC interface, digital

control-parallel, digital control-serial RS-232.

Includes all these options except sub-band

output. Specifications: RF: •Frequency range:

Audio/Video Demodulator

The ZDM-806 is an agile audio/video demodulator.

This unit provides audio and video output from

any channel in the 50~806MHz frequency range.

The ZDM-806 is ideal for signal monitoring and

signal conditioning (audio/video processing and

demodulation) applications. Agile channel selection,

via front panel LED displays and channel up/down

buttons, permits on-the-fly channel changes. The

ZDM-806 takes a single channel in the 50~806MHz

frequency range (either VHF, UHF or CATV

channels) and demodulates the audio and video

information. Baseband audio and video are provided

as outputs. The ZDM-806 features a rock solid, PLL

synthesized frequency control. Frequency selection

is accomplished via front panel LEDs and channel

up/down buttons. A channel lockout mode is also

provided to prevent accidental channel changes.

Features: 50~806MHz agile demodulator, LED

display with convenient channel selection, superior
