AD9712 Adaptor to hang pre-amp from 22m antenna mount

The amplifier Input comes with an 2.92- female connector. A coaxial microwave cable of 0.5 m length is supplied to connect the Antenna with the Amplifier. The cable is equipped with 2.92 male connectors.

Usually, the amplifier should be installed very close to the antenna. The amplifier housing is equipped with rubber feet. In addition, there are two 1/4" threads in the housing for mounting the amplifier. After turning on the amplifier, you should let it warm up for at least 20 minutes.

In- and Output of the Broadband Amplifier are sensitive to Electrostatic Discharge. Correct precautions (discharge coaxial cables, potential equalization) are required before touching the amplifier!
