BLE100
BLE100
STARLINE® SERIES 1GHz LINE EXTENDER
Product Overview
Motorola’s 1 GHz STARLINE
®
BLE100
Broadband Line Extender leads the industry
in features and performance. This two-way–
capable single-output amplifier offers high
gain, high output levels, ergonomics,
superior distortion performance, multiple
diplex filter options, 16 dB return loss, and
Bode equalization, as well as optional
advanced features such as ingress control
switching and status monitoring.
Enhanced Gallium Nitride
Motorola’s STARLINE BLE100 1 GHz
Amplifiers now feature Gallium Nitride (GaN)
Output Hybrids to allow for an increased drive
level while maintaining existing specifications.
The GaN hybrid technology allows for 3 dB of
increased drive level over the existing Gallium
Arsenide (GaAS) technology. The GaN
technology also provides for increased reliability
that raises the Electro Static Discharge (ESD)
levels by 3kV—putting them at the reliability
level of Silicon (Si) technology.
High Gain
The BLE100 offers high gain, allowing the
operator to hold existing amplifier locations
during system upgrades, reducing
maintenance, installation, and powering
costs.

Return Path
High-gain return amplifiers providing 24 dB
minimum station gain are available. Return
path equalizers from 0 to 12 dB can be
selected. Thermal compensation is an
optional feature, available as a plug-in JXP-
TH*C, which stabilizes gain and match over
temperature extremes.
Ingress Control Switching (ICS) in three
states is also available. This pin diode
attenuator circuit can lower levels by 6 dB or
by 38 dB with a controlled slew rate for
minimum bit errors. The LIFELINE
®
Broadband Line Extender transponder
(available directly from Opterna AM) and
accompanying deeper housing lid are
required to operate the Ingress Control
Switch from a remote location.
FCC, CENELEC, and
CCC approved
RoHS - compliant models
available
Bode equalization
(thermal or auto
controlled)
15 A AC capability
Optional return path

status monitor

®
SERIES BLE100 1 GHZ LINE EXTENDER
Forward Path
The operational gain of the BLE100 is 34 dB,
with 16 dB return loss. Output level control is
achieved through the use of an interstage
Bode equalizer, which compensates for
coaxial cable attenuation changes due to
temperature. Equalization may be controlled
manually, with a thermal drive unit (TDU), or
with a single-pilot closed-loop automatic drive
unit, model ADU-* (analog pilot) or QADU-*
(QAM pilot). Both the ADU and QADU boards
are common to the STARLINE family of
amplifiers (with the exception of the SLE and
MBV3). ADUs use Surface Acoustic Wave
(SAW) filters for determining pilot frequency,
improving amplifier stability over temperature.
To further ensure system flexibility,
installation ease, and maintenance, the
amplifier is engineered for compatibility with
standard accessories, such as attenuators,
equalizers, ADUs or QADUs, return
amplifiers, automotive fuses, and FTEC
crowbar circuits.
The BLE100 uses modular diplex filters,
which can be changed for a different
frequency split as required.
The following filters are available for use with
all US-style Motorola RF distribution
amplifiers (models BLE, MB/MBV3, BT):
• K-split (5 to 42 MHz/54 to 1002 MHz)
• A-split (5 to 65 MHz/85 to 1002 MHz)
• N-split (5 to 85 MHz/104 to 1002 MHz)
Backward Compatibility
The BLE100 electronics package can be made
backward compatible with the
BLE-15A Kit. These kits contain 50 mil gold
plated platform assemblies. This makes it
possible for the amplifier to carry 15 Amperes
continuous through the input or output ports.
