There is nothing worse than having a great TV to watch your favorite programs, while having a grainy or pixilated (digital cable) picture. Motorola BDA amplifiers give your TV signal a boost while maintaining full compatibility with all of your cable services. Simply install the BDA-K4/RA where your cable or antenna comes into your house and begin enjoying a better picture, faster downloads, and a more reliable HD or Digital TV signal. With a name like Motorola, how can you go wrong? The BDA-K4/RA is fully compatible with all cable TV standards, cable boxes, cable modems, routers, HDTV and more. Active return may not fix all of your problems if the product is not installed properly - or if the incoming cable signal is not problematic.

This review is from: Motorola Signal Booster 4-Port Cable Modem TV HDTV Amplifier with Active Return Cable Modem Boost (Electronics) Motorola BDA-K4-RA Active Return Amplifier exhibited excellent performance and quality. Prior to installation, my Motorola SB6120 Cable Modem exhibited intermittent disconnects as a result of a weak upstream signal between the Comcast system street amplifier and the Modem. As is the usual case with intermittent problems, the system was operational when the Comcast Technician visited although it was determined that the signal was on the weak side but within Comcast specifications. The actual Upstream modem signal at the time was +54 dbmV, near the modem dropout limits. Ideal specifications should be within +40 to +50 dbmV.After installing this active amplifier, new Upstream values measured +45 dbmV, exactly within ideal spec. Downstream values were boosted +10dbm from a previous -1 dbmV to a +9dbmV, both values within specifications of -15 to +15dbmV. TV signals also improved eliminating digital pixilation or freezing as had sometimes occurred in the past. Signal to...

This review is from: Motorola Signal Booster 4-Port Cable Modem TV HDTV Amplifier with Active Return Cable Modem Boost (Electronics) This booster eliminated all my Comcast problems for cable and internet. Internet signal strength went from -6.2dbm to +9.8dbm. This brought my cable speed up to 17.5mbs, from 3.6mbs. There is now NO pixelation on any TV using direct digital feed, and it eliminated those occasional messages with the convertors that said " we've detected an interrruption in your service, please call...." Would recommend to anyone with signal strength problems. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful By This review is from: Motorola Signal Booster 4-Port Cable Modem TV HDTV Amplifier with Active Return Cable Modem Boost (Electronics) However the coax was passed around the house, only one of the four televisions in my house received a nice picture. The good picture was on the television that was three feet from the cable drop splitter (TVs and Cable modem). The other televisions were further, but not more than fifty feet (even if the cable went up to the attic and came back down to the basement) I've used other R.Shack amplifiers and have put them next to the television. This helped, but didn't remove the tiling all together. The Motorola signal booster mounted in the basement after the first splitter corrected the tiling issue everywhere. I would recommend this item to resolve digital signal tiling issues. As previously stated on another review, do not pass your cable modem line through this booster (I tried but experienced DNS not-found issues.) |
