OPTIONS FOR BIPOLAR AMPLIFIERS
INPUT BIAS TEE
Add Suffix “-F”
Used to inject bias signal to photo diode or other type
of device. Check for availability on your model before
ordering. Available on most units operating above 1
MHz. Please contact MITEQ with your custom
requirements.
BIAS THROUGH THE OUTPUT CONNECTOR
Add Suffix “-1306/E” or “-1306/D”
Used to supply operating power when the amplifier
is remotely located while eliminating the need to run
a separate DC line. Specify whether existing power
pin should be “Enabled” or “Disabled.” To order, add
-1306/E or -1306/D after model number. Example:
AU-2A-0150-1306/E will have existing +15 V pin
enabled so that it can be used as a test point. Use
caution with this option since any voltage applied here
will also be present on the RF output center pin.
Available on most units operating above 1 MHz.
BIAS THROUGH THE OUTPUT CONNECTOR
WITH DC FEEDTHROUGH TO RF INPUT
Add Suffix “-1334/E” or “-1334/D”
Used to supply operating power when the amplifier is
remotely located and eliminates the need to run a
separate DC line. This DC voltage is then internally
fed to the RF input to power a remote LNA or other
low power equipment. Maximum current of external
load will vary with model type. Available on most units
operating above 1 MHz. Please contact factory prior
to ordering.
Specify whether existing power pin should be
Enabled or Disabled”. To order, add -1334/E or -1334/D”
after model number. Example: AU-2A-0150-1334/E
will have existing +15 V pin enabled so that it can be
used as a test point. Use caution with this option since
any voltage applied here will also be present on both
the RF output and input center pins.
TYPE N OR BNC CONNECTORS
Add Suffix “-N” or “-BNC”
Type N-female and type BNC-female are available for
all outlines 1 through 5, 12, 13 and 15 amplifiers. Add
connector type after model number. Examples: AU-2A-
0150-N; AU-2A-0150-BNC. Type N-male and mixed
connector types are also available on request. Please
call MITEQ with your specific requirements.
INPUT INTERNAL LIMITER
Add Suffix “-1103”
Available on models up to 500 MHz. Will protect the
input stage from CW signals as high as +30 dBm. To
order, add “-1103” after model number. Example:
AU-2A-0150-1103. Options are available for protec-
tion against short duration pulses up to 50 W.
AC POWER SUPPLY (100 to 240 VAC,
47 440 Hz). Add Suffix “-1179”
Available as an add-on to most models using outlines
1 through 5 and 15. Includes 6-foot line cord with
standard US line plug, internal fuse, on/off switch and
LED indicator light. Amplifier is permanently mounted
to power supply. To order, add “-1179” after model
number. Example: AU-2A-0150-1179. Refer to outline
12 for dimensions.
AC POWER SUPPLY (Wall plug-in unit)
Part Number “205531-19”
A low cost alternate to option “-1179”, the wall plug-in
unit is a small switching power supply capable of
delivering 1 amp at 15 volts.
AC POWER SUPPLY WITH SMC
CONNECTORS (Wall plug-in unit)
Part Number “-1179SC”
Same as above except has mating SMC connectors
on amplifier DC input and power supply DC output.
Available for outlines 1 through 10, 13 and 15.

please contact the factory and the appropriate information will be provided.
SOURCE INSPECTION
Government / customer source inspection is available on any item upon receipt of the complete written confirmation of purchase
