Distribution Amplifiers

Winegard’s new HDA series of Distribution Amplifiers was designed to meet the market demand for a heavy duty, quality built, cost effective solution for the amplification and distribution of analog/digital broadcast signals from Off-Air and cable TV stations. Both the HDA-100 & HDA-200 are housed in an industrial grade, weather resistant enclosure. Each unit has an RF input, amplified RF output, and DC power insertion jack. Each amplifier also provides a 5-42 MHz 2-way bi-pass.

The Winegard HDA-100 is a single RF input, 15dB gain, single RF output, with a 5-42 MHz 2-way bi-pass at -2 dB loss.

The HDA-200 has a single RF input, 24 dB gain, single RF output, with a 5-42 MHz 2-way bi-pass at +12 dB gain. The HDA-200 has 0-18 dB gain control and 20 dB “switchable” FM trap to eliminate those offending FM radio stations. These features, when combined with the 12 dB of amplified gain for the 2 way 5-42 MHz return path make the HDA- 200 a superior solution for the “Techno” savvy consumer.
