Connections and Features
Mounting Flanges: Mounting
holes are provided on HyperAmp’s
mounting flanges for either mast
mounting using the included U-
bolts, or bolted directly to a
bracket or other structure.
Power/Transmit LED: This LED
glows GREEN in receive mode
when power is applied to the
amplifier, and flashes RED when
transmitting.
Radio Connection: This
connects to the DC Power Injector
via the antenna feed cable.
Antenna Connection: This
connects to the antenna.
The DC Power Injector
ADC Power Injector (also known as a “Bias-T”) is an in-line device which “couples” DC power onto
acoaxial cable, allowing the cable to carry both RF signals and DC power. The HyperAmp™ SE is
powered remotely through the coaxial antenna feed cable by way of this device. The DC Power
Injector supplied with the HyperAmp™ SE unit also provides lightning protection.
The Power Injector provides both Power and Remote Transmit Detect indicator LEDs. The Power
Indicator LED provides indication that the DC power supply is functioning. The Remote Transmit Detect
indicator detects changes in the DC current traveling through the antenna feed cable supplying the
HyperAmp™. When the HyperAmp™ enters the transmit mode this indicator LED will be illuminated,
providing positive indication that the system is functioning properly. This indicator typically flashes
rapidly while the transmitter is transmitting.
Mounting and Cabling Instructions
The HyperAmp™ SE/SX can be mast
mounted using the stainless steel U-bolts
included with the unit. Refer to the sketch
for proper positioning. Use an open-end
wrench to carefully tighten the bolts using
the included nuts. Take care not to over-
tighten the bolts or cause damage to the
RF connectors on the amplifier. Since the
amplifier is a sealed unit, these connectors
cannot easily be repaired.
Alternately, the unit can be mounted to a
flat surface using any of the mounting
holes on the unit's mounting flanges.
For best results against lightning damage,
attach a ground wire to one of the U-bolts
securing the amplifier.
Note:The Amplifier is shipped with plastic protective caps affixed to the RF
connectors. These caps should not be removed until after the amplifier is
mounted, and you are ready to attach the cabling. In addition to protecting
the connector threads, the caps will keep out rain or moisture which can
cause deterioration of the connector contacts.
