Blonder Tongue AP Series Agile Processor (AP60-450) Tested Working Fast Shipping

Description

Description: Analog agile processor in good working order.
The AP Series includes professional quality, agile heterodyne processors equipped with the Emergency Alert System (EAS) feature, which can also be used as an alternate IF input. These units convert any channel in the 50 to 806 MHz (7 to 43 MHz with Option 17) frequency range to any channel in the 50 to 450/550 MHz (7 to 450 MHz with Option 04) frequency range. The AP Series is ideal for moving an off-air channel (VHF or UHF) or any single channel source to any unused channel (broadcast or CATV, including HRC and IRC assignments) in the system. Agile channel selection permits on-the-fly channel changes and reduces the need for large inventories of channelized products. These processors have a wide range of standard and optional features that make them very suitable for advanced CATV systems. Four models are available, including: AP-40-450, +40 dBmV, 50-450 MHz; AP-40-550, +40 dBmV, 50-550 MHz; AP-60-450, +60 dBmV, 50-450 MHz; and AP-60-550, +60 dBmV, 50-550 MHz. All models feature rock solid, synthesized frequency control, with a tuning increment of 250 kHz. Frequency selection is accomplished via front panel DIP switches. A channel listing chart is conveniently attached to the inside of the DIP switch cover. True vestigial sideband SAW filtering guarantees superior broadcast picture quality. Two SAW filters are used to ensure proper adjacent channel rejection. Delayed AGC circuitry automatically compensates for input signal variations. These processors have an external IF loop, which allows interfacing with video all-call and signal scrambling systems. The AP Series utilizes a standby carrier oscillator to provide a blank picture when the input level drops below a usable level. This prevents a snowy picture from being delivered to the distribution network in the event of signal degradation or complete loss of picture.
The EAS/ALT IF feature allows the customer to choose between manual and automatic selection of EAS/ALT IF input signal. This is done through a 3 position terminal strip on the rear of the unit. In the manual mode the EAS/ALT IF feature is activated by a contact closure switch, which completes a ground connection. In the automatic mode two positions on the terminal strip are jumpered together enabling an automatic detection circuit in the unit. When an EAS/ALT IF signal is routed to the EAS/ALT IF port the unit automatically switches to that alternate signal. These processors provide extremely clean output signals with distortion products (-60 dB or better). An exceptionally low broadband noise floor (-76 dBc or better) makes the AP Series ideal for large, multiple channel headends without the need for additional filtering
