AP Series-Heterodyne Agile Processors are ideal for relocating an off-air channel or any channel source from 54-806 MHz to an unused channel in the system up to 806 MHz. Sub-band input and output options also available.

AD-1 Series Agile Audio/Video Demodulator - Rack mountable and equipped with AGC Circuitry which automatically compensates for input level variations. Input frequency range of 54-860 MHz. Takes a single NTSC channel and demodulates to baseband. Available  with sub-band input option, digital control option, balanced audio option, or stereo option.

OC Combiners-Professional quality combiners designed for headend use. Combine the outputs of multiple modulators or processors in 1 RU. Frequency range from 5-1000MHz. Also features a 20dB test port. Available with 8,12,16,24, or 32 inputs.

BPF-These commercial grade, 1 RU, single channel band-pass filters utilize a 6 stage, two phase cancellation traps to provide excellent rejection of out-of-band signals. Available in single-channel VHF models or single-channel UHF models

CEF-This 1 RU filter is designed to completely remove a single channel in your lineup for local channel re-insertion. Filter out any channel from 54-312 MHz  (channel 2-38) and pass channels from 54-750 MHz.

AQM-Digitize your headend with Blonder Tongue's Agile QAM Modulator. The AQM accepts an MPEG-2 digital signal and modulates the stream onto any QAM channel from 2-135 (54-860 MHz). Up to 6 modulators fit into a standard BT 2 RU chassis, making it easy to upgrade your existing analog headend.

AQD-Digital broadcasting is the wave of the future, but not all properties are digital ready. Blonder Tongue has the solution. The AQD will  demodulate any QAM signal and remodulate it on any analog channel from 54-860 MHz.

QT Series-The Blonder Tongue QAM Transcoder series is the latest group of products designed for the delivery of digital information over a QAM network.  The QT series can easily deliver High Definition programming with a QTM-HD module. Each QAM Transcoder Module is fully agile to allow the reception of  any Echostar Dish Network or Bell ExpressVU DVB transponder.

DHDP series-The DHDP series is a 2-unit system of a downconverter and upconverter designed to provide off-air HD signals to customers. The downconverter acts as the input and accepts any 8VSB signal from 54-860MHz.

MIRC-4-This is a 4-slot horizontal combination chassis & power supply. Available in 19" 1 RU rack mount or a wall-mount/stand alone cube. Holds MICM and AMCM series modulators, MIDM series demodulators, and DHDP series processors.

MIRC-12-This is a 12-slot vertical 19" 2RU rack mounted chassis. Power supply (MIPS-12) not included. Holds MICM and AMCM series modulators, MIDM series demodulators, and DHDP series processors.

 

MICM45-This is a vertical mount, single fixed channel modulator. Frequency range of 54-860 MHz. Provides 45 dB RF output. Uses MIRC-4 or MIRC-12 chassis/power supply.

MICM-45stereo-This is a vertical mount, single fixed channel modulator. Frequency range of 54-860 MHz. Provides 45 dB output, and a stereo audio and video modulated RF carrier on any single VHF channel. Uses MIRC-4 or MIRC-12 chassis/power supply.

MIDM-This fully agile demodulator will convert any channel from 54-806 MHz to analog baseband. Fully compatible with MICM-45 modulators for easy channel processing. Uses MIRC-4 or MIRC-12 chassis/power supply.

AMCM-Fully agile audio/video modulators with an output of 45dB and frequency range of 54-860 MHz. Uses MIRC-4 or MIRC-12 chassis/power supply. Available with mono or stereo outputs.

MIPS-12-Power supply used in conjunction with the MIRC-12 chassis. Capable of powering up to 12 cards.

MCA-b-Amplify any specific VHF channel up to 60 dB with a Blonder Tongue MCA-b strip amp. Fixed to any channel from 54-216 MHz, this unit is designed to amplify and stabilize the level of a VHF channel in a headend system. An adjustable aural trap at the input and an adjacent trap at the output allows for quality adjacent channel operation. This unit is AC powered and fits in a standard 19" rack taking up only 1 RU of space.

MEGA Port Gateway-Offer high speed internet to your customers with the Blonder Tongue MEGA Port Gateway series. The MEGA Port acts as a router between the CMTS and up to 64 active users with a business class DOCSIS modem while utilizing existing coaxial infrastructure. Built in SNMP capability allows for remote management and control.

MEGA Port Series Outlets-The MPO acts like a modem while interfacing with the MEGA Port Gateway and the customers PC. Output to TV also included. Each outlet is MAC addressed for remote activation and control.

ACA-Apartment Complex Amplifier series is an indoor broadband distribution amplifier used in MDU RF distribution scenarios. Features built-in slope control and variable gain using push-pull hybrid module design. Two way models with passive return are available in 550 MHz, 750 MHz, and 860 MHz bandwidths. Forward only is available in 550 MHz bandwidth only.

BIDA-The BIDA amp has been referred to as "the Cadillac of indoor amps" and for good reason. The BIDA 5800 & 5900 series are professional quality, two-way broad indoor distribution amplifier. The 5800 series features an active return from 5-36 MHz, while the 5900 series runs from 5-42 MHz. Both series are available in 550 MHz, 750 MHz, or 860MHz with or without active return. Both feature slope and gain control as well as input/output test points.
