I purchased a Fab-Corp BDA Model 2400-1.0w amplifier that came without any spec sheets or instructions.  It is a 1.0 watt amp with a 17 dBm receive gain.  It has a coaxial power connector on one side that someone wrote "9V 800m" by it.  N-female connections on both ends of the amp.

What are the power requirements and does anyone have a spec sheet for this amp?

Thanks and 73

Hello, Dave. Nice to see you on this forum. I am testing a Smart Amp 2400-1.0w amplifier as I am writing this. I was not able to find a spec sheet but here is what I know. This is a Power-Over-Coax amplifier. I do not know if it is an outdoor or indoor although it looks to be sealed. It will require a DC Injector. I do not see a model number on the one I am using but I have seen information on the Injector by googling Smart Amp DC Injector. The performance is comparable to the other amplifiers I have tested and the receive noise figure is good, which is a problem with some of the other amplifiers. I have tested the amplifier with a 7.5 VDC power source (actually closer to 10-volts) and it currently is running on one of the Linksys 12 VDC node power supplies. If you hear me on-air give me a shout and we can talk further. 73, Dave WA7RYV
