looks like it's the one virgin have used for splitting a cable feed to large properties, line powered and relatively low gain, so probably low noise as well.

Thanks and yes, I am hoping for a low noise throughout (though the true specifications are missing from all places that have data on the product)

I'm upgrading a client's property with satellite and terrestrial to four points, the Virgin stuff was left by the last houseowner and if the Tratec does what I think it does, it will serve me well for a couple of projects where I'm not connecting UHF stuff.

If your thinking about a common feed to all points, it won't do too well on satellite as it looks to cut off at a gigahertz.

85 MHz to 1 GHz, with a reverse amp at 5- to 65 MHz , with unity gain both ways is all I can find on it.

Cant even get their web site to come up.

From a couple of searches tonight it looks like the nearest product is the HDU-400, difference on paper seems to be the DC power supply requirement.

Still can't find the specification though.
