Whyte ADA102 A Series Advanced Distribution Amplifier
SAFETY
- The Whyte Series A Distribution Amplifiers are intended for indoor use only.
- Do not install the Distribution Amplifier in damp, humid, hot, or dusty areas.
- Switch off the source of power when making connections to the Distribution
- Amplifier to avoid damaging the unit.
- Always earth bond the Distribution Amplifier using the Earth Bonding Lug to a suitable Earth Bonding point using up to 6mm2 core earth cable.
PRECAUTIONS
To ensure a trouble-free operation of your Whyte Distribution Amplifier: Do not remove the cover of the Distribution Amplifier or dissemble it, as this will invalidate your guarantee. The female F-Type connectors on this unit were designed for use with ‘100’ type coaxial cable with a center core diameter of 1mm2. When using larger diameter ‘125’ or ‘165’ coaxial cables, you must ensure that suitable IF connectors with reducing pins are used, otherwise damage to the unit will occur which will invalidate the guarantee. Do not over-tighten the F connectors (finger tight only).
GUARANTEE
All Whyte products are guaranteed for a period of 4 years from the date of purchase against defects. Within this period, Whyte Technologies will repair or replace the faulty product. In the unlikely event, please return any faulty products to your dealer. The guarantee will be deemed void if the serial number on the product is removed, damaged or illegible. The guarantee excludes defects caused by incorrect use, accidental damage, disassembly, water/fire/lightening damage or lack of ventilation
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A comprehensive range of RED-compliant, professional Advanced Distribution Amplifiers with IRS Loop-through. This enables Whyte Series A Distribution Amplifiers to be connected directly to a Multiswitch subscriber output whereby the SAT and TERR/RADIO signals are passed through the Distribution Amplifier before terminating at the outlet plate. The TERR/RADIO signals are amplified before being distributed to the TERR & RADIO outlets.
The Whyte Series A Distribution Amplifiers are available in sizes ranging from 2-Way to 16-Way. The IRS Loop-through can also be used to cascade multiple units to create large-scale Master Antenna TV systems (MATV). When used as a standard TERR and RADIO Distribution Amplifier, the Whyte range of Distribution Amplifiers offer a professional, low noise, high gain solution.
Features include:
- RED Compliant
- Ultra-Low Noise ≤4dB
- 10dB ~ 12dB Gain (depending on model)
- Gain Control
- IRS Loop-Through
- Cascadable
- LTE Filter (4G)
- High-Quality Distribution Amplifier with a 4-year guarantee
- Internal power supply
- Remote Powering via all outputs
- Adequate cable clearance for routing underneath
- Models available include 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 16-way output

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
- The Whyte Series A Advanced Distribution Amplifier has been designed to meet the requirements of the modern Integrated TV & Satellite Integrated Reception System.
- The range features an IRS Loop-through which enables Whyte Series A Distribution Amplifiers to connected directly to a Multiswitch subscriber output.
- The IRS Loop through is passive and passes all frequencies between 87MHz to 2340MHz. The IRS Loop-through permits 22kHz tone as well as DiSEqC commands to be passed backwards. Hence the ADA 100 series Advanced Distribution Amplifiers are compatible with both legacy and dSCR Multiswitches.
Used as a Terrestrial TV and Radio Distribution Amplifier (MATV), the ADA provides unrivalled low noise, high gain performance and reliability. This RED compliant - Distribution Amplifier includes a high rejection 4G Filter and features a 15dB Gain Control which ensures that the ADA100 can be applied to most any signal level scenario.
- The unit can be powered via the AC mains lead supplied or, in the absence of mains supply can be remotely powered via any of the TERR Outputs using a suitable PSU (not included).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
MOUNTING THE DISTRIUTION AMPLIFIER
Select a suitable location to install the Distribution Amplifier. Do not install the Distribution Amplifier in damp, humid, hot, or dusty areas. Using the screw slots on the corner brackets and transformer housing secure the Distribution Amplifier using the supplied fixing screws or other fixing to suit the relevant wall, surface, or cabinet.
EARTH BONDING
Earth bond the Distribution Amplifier to the Earth Bonding Lug using minimum 6mm2 Earth Bonding Cable. Make sure that the Earth Bonding Cable is connected directly to the buildings PME (Protective Multiple Earthing) point.
USING THE INTERNAL AC POWER SUPPLY
Where a 230V UK AC socket outlet is available the Distribution Amplifier can be plugged in to provide power to the amplifier circuit. AC cord with 3A fused BS1363 moulded UK mains plug included.
