Based on our advanced microstrip amplifier technology, the GCS series ATSC transmitter/translators represents the pinnacle of value-for-dollar ATSC broadcast equipment.

Value-leading cost of ownership provides low power TV (LPTV) licensees opportunities to own multiple transmitter sites. As a stand alone transmitter the GCS can directly accept SMPTE 310M digital A/V from the studio or a pre-recorded programming source.

When configured as a booster or coverage gap filler, any number of GCS transmitters can be synchronized with the main broadcast to enhance on-channel signal propagation and distribution. When translating to a different channel than the main broadcast, a precise internal clock maintains channel IF. Full signal error correction is provided to ensure the cleanest output.

Reliability and autonomy is enhanced with our intelligent master control unit, which is capable of maintaining output power into compromised coax, damaged or icy antenna and even partial amplifier failure, to keep the station on-air until repair crews arrive. The system is compatible with industry standard remote control equipment for the ultimate in off-site security, monitoring and control.

Specifically designed into a rugged, compact form factor for easy shipping, installation and transport, the system requires no special tools for installation and runs on common single-phase AC power. RF output is adjustable over a 3 dB span so your station can run maximum allowable ERP without causing harmful interference.
