Crestron SRD-AMP-1 High Gain Line Amplifier

High Gain Line

Amplifier: SRD-AMP-1

Introduction

The SRD-AMP-1 is an inline amplifier intended for use in overcoming

cable and splitter losses in a Crestron®XM or SIRIUS®satellite radio

distribution network. It is rated to provide 16 dB (typical) of gain in the

satellite radio band (2320-2345 MHz), and is powered from the DC bias

voltage (4.5 VDC to 6.5 VDC nominal) provided by the antenna

connection on the satellite radio tuner downstream. It is also designed to

pass DC voltage to provide power to the antenna and other line amplifiers

installed upstream.

Placed at the beginning of a cable run, a single SRD-AMP-1 line

amplifier will overcome the loss of approximately 150 feet of standard

RG-6 cable. Up to two amplifiers may be cascaded at one spot for a total

of 32 dB of gain to overcome the loss of 300 feet of cable. Cable runs in

excess of 350 feet are possible using quad shielded RG-6, with additional

SRD-AMP-1 line amplifiers installed inline as necessary, spaced equally

along the cable run to prevent overload and distribute the gain properly.

An F-male coupler is included for use in connecting two line amplifiers

in cascade.

The amplifier will pass DC power in both directions, but must be

installed so the output (marked with an arrow labeled RADIO) is always

oriented in the direction of the radio.

NOTE: The SRD-AMP-1 is designed for indoor or outdoor mounting.

Industry Compliance

As of the date of manufacture, the SRD-AMP-1 has been tested and

found to comply with specifications for CE marking and standards per

EMC and Radiocommunications Compliance Labelling.

Installation

Refer to the illustrations on page 2, and, using the screws provided, orient

and mount the amplifier(s) appropriately according to the distance

between the antenna and the radio. Prepare and connect appropriate RG-6

and/or RG-6 (quad shield) cables to the amplifier(s).

NOTE: For best results in all configurations, use quad-shielded RG-6

cable whenever possible.

Problem Solving

Troubleshooting

The table after this paragraph provides corrective action for possible

trouble situations. If further assistance is required, please contact a

Crestron customer service representative.

SRD-AMP-1 Installation Troubleshooting

TROUBLE POSSIBLE

CAUSES

CORRECTIVE ACTION

With radio on and all

antenna cables

connected at the radio,

check for 4 - 7 VDC at

antenna end of cable.

No signal

reception. Radio

display shows:

“Antenna

Disconnected”, or

“Acquiring Signal”

Short circuits

discontinuities

With radio on and all

antenna cables

connected at the radio,

check for AC voltage at

antenna end of cable;

should be < 1 VAC. If AC

voltage is found, check

for ground loops.

Ensure proper cable type

and length(s) per the

illustrations on page 2.

Antenna is

connected

properly but

signal is too

weak for

reception.

Ensure amplifiers are

oriented properly with the

output (marked with an

arrow labeled Radio)

oriented towards the

radio.

“Check Antenna”

or “No Signal”

Refer to the instructions

supplied with the antenna

to ensure the antenna is

pointed accurately.
