Description
Kingray MHW43FS 43dB Shielded Masthead TV Amplifier
Kingray MHW43FS EDGE Series F Type Masthead Amplifier is a 2 Input Shielded F Type 43dB masthead amp designed to amplify UHF signals and diplex a separate VHF signal or amplify the UHF component of a combined VHF UHF aerial (antenna).
Please note this amplifier does not come with Power Supply. Select power injector from stock number 451004, 451033, 451008, or 451009
A masthead amplifier is designed to amplify low signal levels for digital TV applications.
This high quality Australian Made product is specifically designed for rejection of the Australian LTE band. (LTE bands vary slightly from country to country)
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is the term now used by the TV industry to describe the frequency band between 700 and 800 MHz that was once use by the UHF TV channels 51 to 69. 4G mobile phone operators started using the LTE band in 2015 therefore it is important masthead amplifiers have filtering above 700MHz to minimise the impact of 4G signals on TV reception devices such as mast head amplifiers
There is some debate among industry experts about the impact LTE/4G services will have on existing TV services. It is likely that TV aerial installations that include older band 5 aerials and band 5 amplifiers will suffer interference from the planned LTE/4G service hence the need for LTE rejection in mast head amps such as this product

Since the distant days of the monochrome VHF service, in fact for almost as long as television has been available in Australia, Kingray have been one of the major players in the TV service industry.
In the 1960s and 70s Standard Communications revolutionised the Australian MATV market with the Kingray range of broadband high power distribution amplifiers.
The success of the Kingray product range evolves from carefully listening to customers, being intimately involved in markets, having the foresight and vision to take a perceived problem, converting it to an opportunity and generating a practical solution.
With the changes in Digital Television technologies, Kingray’s research and development efforts have accelerated to ensure the compatibility of Kingray products and to enhance the range with additional products that meet and surpass customers’ expectations for quality, performance and price.
Sixty years later, Kingray continues to grow today & into the future, with a diversified product range to accommodate a new era of delivering Satellite & TV services over optical fibre cable.
