Patented Bonding System
An Anvil-type ground bonding fastener is
superior to a blunt screw because the
screw will gouge and deform the copper
wire. Greater pressure can be maintained
at the bonding interface with an anvil as
shown here. The unique ground plates
prevent ground wire damage when
tightened.
Ground plates provide maximum ground
wire surface contact
Patented Direct Connect FIC Port
The FIC port reduces the number of
connections when amplifiers and splitters
are connected together. This increases
the reliability of the total installation. The
FIC port has been carefully designed to
maintain EMI and environmental shielding.
The maximum torque exceeds the SCTE
recommendation by 50%.
Direct connect FIC Port interfaces without
a jumper when using traditional splitters
Patent Pending Passive Data Port
A Blue port indicates a Passive Data Port
for use exclusively by the Cable or VoIP
modem. It is the first port in line with the
input before amplification. Since it is
passive, it is not affected by a power
outage.
Passive Data Port for continuous Data

Unique Power Passing Splitter & Power
Inserter Modules allow Local or Remote
Powering
The IPA1000 Amplifiers feature a
dedicated local power port plus a RF/
remote power port when using a power
inserter module on the power adapter as
shown here. Note power passing splitters
are available in standard 2, 3, and 4 way
horizontal splitter housings and Unique
direct connect Splitter Modules as shown.
The red line on the label shows direction
of the power-passing port.

powering
Patented Modem Module with Direct
Connect FIC Port
Any of the standard IPA1000 Amplifiers
can be upgraded to Passive Modem
Service using a Modem Module as shown.
Modem tap values of 3.5, 6, and 9 dB are
available as well as a dual modem module
with two passive modem ports.
Reverse Gain Module
When reverse gain is needed, it is
possible to upgrade the installation to
overcome excessive loss launching to the
reverse plant by adding a Reverse Gain
Module like the IPARM. It provides 10dB
of high-output gain capability.
