This generator cover the needs for testing the return path, the RP-100 and RP-100Q, signal generators are designed for the activation and later verification of the return path in CATV networks. These instruments are capable of generating 2 (RP-100) or 4 (RP-100Q) carriers that, inserted in a remote outlet, allow to observe the correct functioning in the head-end or any other point down in the line.
The instrument allows to independently program 2 or 4 pilots between 5 and 100 MHz with an output level in the range of 90 to 110 dBµV (30-50 dBmV) adjustable in steps of 1 dB. Since it permits to select independent frequencies for each pilot, you can perform multiple and simultaneous tests from different places or by different operators. The instrument comes with an internal rechargeable battery so it can be used on a remote site.
