MAAM-008863
FTTx RF Amplifier
The MAAM-008863 provides high gain, low noise and low distortion amplification of the downstream CATV signal in fiber-to-the-home (FTTH)applications. This device is ideally suited for interfacing with the RF video output of optical triplexers used within optical network terminals(ONTs). The MAAM-008863 is fabricated using MACOM's low noise GaAs pHEMT technology in a lead-free 4 mm 24-lead package. The amplifier requires a minimal number of off-chip components resulting in a highly integrated low cost solution.
