Amplifiers

The ATX GigaXtend HFC amplifier portfolio is a family of 1.2GHz and 1.8GHz Line Extenders (LE), System Amplifiers (SA), Booster amps, accessories and band-split upgrade kits that offer MSOs both an upgrade path for their current installed base of amplifiers and the opportunity to invigorate their outside plants with technology built to accommodate future spectrum increases and bandwidth demands.

The only authorized successor to the venerable GainMaker® family of HFC amplifiers, ATX GigaXtend GMC 1.2GHz and 1.8GHz amps build upon a reliable and well-trusted technology foundation to provide cable operators with a cost-efficient and friction-free path to delivering multigigabit symmetrical services that will meet consumer demand and fend off competitors for decades to come.
