GB G Geenneerraall iinnffoorrm maattiioonn The processing units in the TMB10 range are used to selectively filter analogue and digital UHF channels. These units also couple and amplify VHF programmes according to the satellite band model (IF). TMB10 units have one amplified wide band coupling input; 10 UHF filters, distributed over 3 inputs with programmable bandwidth from 1 to 6 channels (8 to 48 MHz), making it suitable for most situations.

GB IInnssttaalllliinngg tthhee uunniitt We recommend you install the unit in a sufficiently ventilated place. Natural ventilation must be able to occur through the ventilation grids; leave a minimum space of 15 cm around the unit to ensure maximum ventilation. When installing or cabling the unit, we recommend you disconnect the mains power cable. Connecting the unit Note: UHF inputs are remotely supplied and protected against short circuits. The power available is 12 or 24V, 50mA max.
