FAQ

  • Q: How many digital filters can be programmed on the AVANT X?

    • A: The AVANT X allows programming up to 32 digital filters on 4 LowVHF+HighVHF+UHF inputs.
  • Q: What is the purpose of LTE filtering in the multiband amplifier?

    • A: The multiband amplifier can detect LTE signals and automatically set the filter to channel 36 (for LTE600) or 51 (for LTE700) to minimize interference.

AVANT X programmable multiband amplifier for terrestrial signals, with 32 digital programmable filters
A new evolutionary stage
Multi-input multiband amplifier, perfect for terrestrial individual or MDU (Multi Dwelling Unit) installations, that allows programming up to 32 digital filters on 4 LowVHF +HighVHF+ UHF inputs (DTT).

The multiband amplifier is equipped with 6 inputs: FM-4xLowVHF/HighVHF/UHF- CATV, and can achieve programmable amplification and balancing of the different RF inputs.
Thanks to ASuite, the multiband amplifier programming is very easy and intuitive using an Android or Windows/Mac application.

The multiband amplifier is able to detect LTE signals and automatically set the filter to channel 36 (for LTE600) or 51 (for LTE700), thanks to the automatic LTE filtering.

Avant X: A new evolutionary stage
Avant X is a full digital programmable single channel headend, which main mission is to achieve a programmable amplification and balance of different RF input signals.

  • LowVHF+HighVHF+UHF inputs: the channels present in these inputs can be filtered and adjusted using up to 32 digital filters. Each filter can be tuned to any LowVHF+HighVHF+UHF channel, and its bandwidth can comprise between 1 and 4 channels.
    The arrangement of the 32 filters is configurable based on the number of channels present on each LowVHF+HighVHF+UHF input. It’s compatible with ISDB- Tb, ATSC, DVB-T/T2 and NTSC. The output level is programmable between 30-55dBmV. Furthermore, an equalization slope of up to 8 dB can be programmed at the output.

  • The FM input can be enabled or not. In case this input is enabled, it will be amplified and its output level set to 10 dB below the lowest-level UHF channel (taking into account the equalization slope).

  • CATV input : it has an extended frequency range (54-1220MHz). The gain and the slope (0-20dB) are programmable.

Choose the desired programming mode…
Avant X provides different programming options

  • App ASuite for PC/Mac or tablet/Android smartphone, via USB connection (OTG cable included): The multiband amplifier configuration is performed in a friendly and intuitive environment. A configuration can be defined and stored – even without being connected to the multiband amplifier – only to retrieve it at installation and adjustment time.
  • Universal programmer (ref. 7234): The unit is compatible with the programmer, ensuring backwards compatibility.

By pressing the READJUST button (short press), the unit is readjusted to the stored configuration values.
After the multiband amplifier is adjusted, a manual fine tuning can be performed to slightly correct the LowVHF/HighVHF/UHF filters’ gain.
