The VA18 is a high-power, low-noise,
low-distortion RF amplifier that is suitable
for all off-air and uni-directional CATV
applications as well as VHF (high and low),
FM, Midband, Superband, Hyperband,
Ultraband and UHF. It features flat
response from 50Hz to 1GHz and has a
gain of +18dB. The low distortion push-
pull circuit design incorporates surface
mount and strip line technologies for high
reliability and small size. The VA18 comes
with a set of mounting ears that allow
it to be installed in any ELAN SW Grid
System.
