The BIAS T is used to apply DC power to a coaxial antenna line for remotely powering the UFM230 filter/amp. The DC power applied to the BIAS T (9 to 16 VDC) appears on the input port of the BIAS T to power the UFM230 through the coaxial cable, but is isolated from the output port so it will not be applied to the input of the receiver.
The BIAS T is normally placed near the receiver being fed by the coaxial cable, where power is available. The UFM230 filter/amp and antenna are placed at the opposite end of the coaxial cable, close to the antenna.
The BIAST (Bias-tee) is used to insert DC power into a coaxial cable to power a Lectrosonics remote antenna amplifier or filter/amplifier. It is positioned at the receiving end of the coaxial cable to pass DC power from an external source to the coaxial cable running to the antenna. The BIAST consists of a feed inductor to deliver DC to the BNC connector on the antenna side and a blocking capacitor to keep DC from passing through to the receiver. The RF is connected directly from one BNC to the other with only the blocking cap in series. A locking power jack provides the connection to an external power supply such as the Lectrosonics external DC power supply; 9 to 16 VDC; 150 mA or greater capacity.
Features
- Power supply (not included with BiasT)
- 110V AC input
- 12V DC regulated output required for powering the BIAS T (CH20, DCR12/A8U and DCR12/A4U will work.)
Coaxial Power Inserter
An internal blocking diode prevents damage to the BIAST if reverse voltage is applied. A self resetting polyfuse protects the unit from damage in the event of a short on the antenna side. Like other Lectrosonics products with a polyfuse, removing the power from the unit for a few seconds will reset the fuse.
