Channel Vision CVT-15PIA is a 15dB RF Amplifier designed with the future in mind. Unlike other RF amplifiers, the CVT-15PIA features a bi-directional return path for use with future interactive TV, addressable cable box converters, and ultra-high-speed cable modems. This amplifier provides the lowest induced noise figure available and is ideal for boosting the signal strength of cable or antenna signals. It features a 3dB low noise amplifier with 15dB gain and a flatness of +/-0.8dB from 54-1000MHz. The CVT-15PIA also has excellent return loss and tap-to-tap isolation, making it ideal for use in multi-TV setups.

Instructions
Step 1: Mount amplifier.
Step 2: Connect cable or antenna signal to the INPUT jack.
Step 3: Connect OUTPUT jack to distribute signal to all the TV’s in the house.
Step 4: Connect power to 12VDC input, or use PIA (power injector) for remote
power capability. Note: must use DC passive splitters.
Please Note:
The unused trunk line connector of the last outlet device in each trunk line
MUST BE TERMINATED using a 75 terminator (model 2101).
