Overview

The SmartKom series by Televes offers intelligent amplifiers designed for TV distribution in family houses and small collective installations. These devices are engineered to filter, mix, amplify, and balance DTT (Digital Terrestrial Television) signals, all at the touch of a button.

Function Description

SmartKom amplifiers are compact and intelligent, integrating multiple functions typically found in a TV installation into a single device. They are equipped with several inputs to amplify terrestrial signals from up to three different antennas, covering both VHF and UHF bands. Each channel can be individually filtered using any of the 32 available programmable filters, ensuring precise signal management.

The core function of SmartKom is to combine filtering, mixing, amplifying, and signal balancing. This "all-in-one" approach simplifies the installation process by providing a complete signal distribution solution via a single coaxial cable. The digital processing of channels ensures a perfect balance of signal levels at the output, even between adjacent channels, which is crucial for optimal TV reception.

A key feature is the inclusion of a SAW (Surface Acoustic Wave) filter, which provides high rejection of 4G/5G telephone interferences. This ensures that mobile network signals do not disrupt the TV signal, maintaining signal quality. The high channel selectivity, with 32 individual digital filters per channel, allows for precise tuning and isolation of desired signals.

SmartKom amplifiers are designed to deliver great signal quality. When installed on the mast, immediately after the antenna, they prevent signal degradation. Combining these amplifiers with a Televes intelligent antenna further enhances the overall signal quality, resulting in superior TV reception.

Usage Features

SmartKom amplifiers are designed for ease of use, offering both automatic and manual configuration options.

Automatic Configuration (Plug&Play): The autoprogramming function is a standout feature, allowing the device to program and adjust itself simply by pressing a button. After installation, the user just needs to press the autoprogramming button, and the SmartKom will automatically configure and balance the TV signal. This feature also automatically powers the antenna if the signal requires it, eliminating the need for manual adjustments. This makes the installation process quick and straightforward, even for users without extensive technical knowledge. The autoprogramming button is available on the chassis of all amplifiers and also on the domestic power supply included with the mast amplifier (outdoors) version.

Manual Configuration: For professional installers and advanced users, manual configuration is available. This can be done wirelessly via Bluetooth® through a smartphone or tablet using the ASuite application. This eliminates the need to physically go up to the mast to configure the device, offering convenience and flexibility. The Bluetooth antenna is available in the amplifier for the indoor version and inside the domestic power supply for the mast amplifier (outdoors) version, ensuring connectivity in various setups.

Installation Versatility: SmartKom offers two versions to adapt to different installation needs:

  1. Mast Amplifier (Outdoors) Version: This device is installed directly on the antenna mast and is powered through the coaxial output connector. The accompanying PSU (Power Supply Unit) is located indoors and includes a Bluetooth antenna for wireless programming via the ASuite app. This setup is ideal for maximizing signal quality by amplifying the signal as close to the antenna as possible.
  2. Indoor Amplifier Version: This device is installed in the headend of the building. It can be powered locally by an external power supply (e.g., Ref. 732101) or remotely through the output connector connected to a domestic PSU or to existing MSW distribution trunk lines. This version is suitable for installations where the amplifier needs to be located indoors, offering flexibility in power supply options.

User Interface and Indicators: The devices feature LED indicators that display both adjustment and programming status, providing visual feedback on the amplifier's operation.

Maintenance Features

SmartKom amplifiers are designed with features that contribute to their reliability and ease of maintenance.

Automatic Gain Regulation (AGC): Each filter in the SmartKom amplifier includes Automatic Gain Regulation (AGC). This feature ensures that the signal level remains consistent, automatically adjusting for fluctuations and maintaining optimal performance without manual intervention.

Secure Configuration: In the event of an electrical failure, SmartKom saves the current configuration. This means that the device does not need to be reconfigured after a power outage, saving time and effort.

Remote Powering: The mast amplifier version supports remote powering through its coaxial output connector, simplifying the power supply setup.

Robust Construction: The amplifiers feature a high-shielding chassis made of Zamak, which provides durability and protection against external interferences, contributing to the device's longevity and consistent performance.

Quality Manufacturing: SmartKom amplifiers boast 100% European design and manufacturing. They undergo fully automated manufacturing processes, subject to the most stringent quality controls. This commitment to quality ensures reliability and consistent performance over time, minimizing the need for frequent maintenance or replacements.
