Product DescriptionWith the trend of more single family houses being built, Electroline introduces the Flat-Top amplifier to meet the expectation of having cable service in every room in the house. The EDA-FT 08100 Flat-Top is designed for large houses with a cable or off-air drop in every room. The flat top configuration keeps the wiring more compact and neater in both outdoor subscriber box or wall-mounted applications and eliminates the technical problems associated with trying to fit a standard 8 port amplifier into a box that is too small creating crushed and kinked cables that wreak havoc with digital services. Electroline Flat-Top amplifiers are the only amplifiers to offer a configuration with all F-connectors on the bottom edge of the amplifier, facing down. Also, Flat-Top amplifiers come with an active return path which makes managing return signal levels straightforward. With 0 dB of loss in the return path, interactive services can be deployed in any room without rewiring. Features and Specifications: *Number of ports: 8 *Forward gain: 3 dB *Return path insertion loss: 0 dB *Forward passband: 54-1000 MHz *Return passband: 5-42 MHz *Frequency response flatness: ±1 dB *Surge protection (IEEE C62.41-1991, all ports) ring wave: 6 kV, 500 A, loc. B3, combination wave: 6 kV, 3 kA, loc. B3 *Operating temperature: -40°F to 140°F (-40°C to +60°C).

Rating: - Cable Signal Booster
This product works great! It eliminated some of the annoying crashes on our cable boxes and the zero level feedback to the router helped the bandwidth when we upload/download from the internet.
Rating: - Great unit, works well, unnecessary warning in the box
I purchased this unit because I have two analog feeds and two QAM digital capture feeds (via an HDHR unit) that I use in conjunction with SageTV for recording television. I also have a cable modem so there's a couple splitters involved. I did purchase good passive splitters (Monster 2 and 3 ways), however the QAM signal quality levels and the modem performance were not ideal.
I got this model because of the cable modem support. Imagine my surprise when the first thing to pop out of ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent Amp, Great Price, Super Delivery
This works Great with Comcast Cable. Excellent picture on all 11 TVs. Also installed new RG6U Quad Cable direct to most TVs. Price on Amazon was better than on EBay and received in 3 days.
Rating: - Got Digital Cable + Multiple Feeds?
This product fills a gap in cable technology caused by the new Digital Cable Services. If you have more than one source of Digital Cable, DVR, or Cable Modem you need this product. Here are some key points learned:
*Digital services require a return signal for access permission by the cable company. The return signal must not be amplified.
*Splitters reduce both incoming and outgoing signals.
*Long runs also reduce signal strength
*Amplifiers coupled with splitters still ... Read More
Rating: - This Is The Cable Amp You're Looking For...
I've been using a combination of the 2-Way amps from Radio Shack to boost my Comcast cable signal for 2 HD + 4 Plain Digital Cable boxes + 1 Cable Modem. The results were spotty and inconsistent at best. I knew I needed to invest in a real professional grade amplifier in my new house, but had no really good source for good information and feedback about the various products out there. Actually, now I'm glad I put off the decision until now, because this particular model is very new and the only consumer ... Read More
