The VDA38B is the heart of any RF distribu-
tion system. This 3-IN by 8-OUT bi-direc-
tional RF distribution amplifier connects as
many as 8 televisions to cable or antenna
while maintaining optimum signal strength
to all TVs. It also has the capability of
sending IR down each coax run for control
of local TVs or video source components.
The VDA38B is perfect for bi-directional
cable systems, providing a 5-42MHz back
channel for cable modems or interactive
set-top boxes.
