Without opening the amp housing you'd have a difficult time telling the difference. For example Arris FlexMax FM901s amplifiers come in trunk and bridger variants, but both use the same housing:

The tap values are totally dependent on the design and signal level outputs required. It's common to have a few high value taps in a row if they are close together. The insertion or "thru" losses and cable losses don't always add up to be enough loss to drop to the next value tap to make designed levels. High value taps usually have a insertion loss of less than 1dB, if the cable loss is less than 2dB, the total is less than the 3dB signal difference to the next value tap.

Is this not a good setup for a 860MHz system? The system is based off Motorola style ARRIS and Jerrold gear with in last 12 months getting CCOR style ARRIS gear added in extensions. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/I-have-a-question-about-my-system-32031840 Fri, 06 Jul 2018 23:53:49 EDT
