BLE*/* Installation and Operation Manual
Section 1
Introduction
The Motorola STARLINE ® series of broadband line extenders, BLE*/*, accept a single input and
provide 28 through 32 dB of operational gain (depending on model) to a single output. The
BLE*/* series of line extenders meets Telcordia GR-1098 core voltage surge requirements using
surge waveforms as described in IEEE C62.41. The BLE*/* is also FCC, CE, and CCC approved.
Features of the BLE*/* include:
ƒ 870 MHz power doubling technology in enhanced gallium arsenide (E-GaAs)
ƒ Five different modular diplex filter splits
ƒ “Ease of use” ergonomics
ƒ 60/90 Vac line power option
ƒ Thermal and auto-controlled Bode equalization
ƒ −20 dB directional coupler test points
ƒ Optional return path ingress control and LIFELINE ® status monitor
ƒ Two-way operation capability
ƒ 15-amp power passing
