Televes Ellipse Mix Amplified TV Antenna - LTE Ready (148883)

Televes Ellipse Mix High-VHF/UHF Smart TV Antenna with Power Supply (148883)

Best For

Homes in medium- to long-range reception areas that need a directional outdoor or attic antenna for both high-VHF and UHF television channels with automatic signal-level management.

Why Choose the Televes Ellipse Mix?

The Ellipse Mix combines high-VHF and UHF reception with Televes TForce/BOSS amplification technology. When powered by the included power supply, the antenna automatically adjusts its output to help handle both weak and strong incoming signals. Its repack-ready filtering rejects cellular interference above 608 MHz, and the built-in amplification means a separate mast preamplifier is generally not required.

Key Benefits

• Receives high-VHF channels 7-13 and UHF channels 14-36
• Built-in TForce/BOSS preamplifier with automatic gain adjustment
• Independent high-VHF and UHF amplification
• 5G/LTE filtering above the current U.S. TV band
• Included UL-listed power supply with two outputs
• Suitable for outdoor or attic installation
• Compact triple-boom directional design

Who Should Buy the 148883?

OTA viewers who need high-VHF and UHF reception in a challenging or longer-range location and want an antenna with built-in intelligent amplification. Actual reception depends on terrain, obstructions, transmitter power, antenna height, and installation conditions.

• UHF: 470-608 MHz, channels 14-36
• Powered Gain: Up to 36.5 dBi high-VHF and 40 dBi UHF
• Power: 12 VDC, maximum 70 mA
• Mast Diameter: 20-50 mm

Installation Notes

Mount and aim the antenna toward the desired broadcast towers. Use the included power supply to activate intelligent amplification, and verify coaxial cable, grounding, mast strength, and local installation requirements.

• Extremely lightweight and compact: it makes installation in challenging locations easier and offers lower wind resistance
• The highest dynamic range: it allows the reception of a quality signal in a variety of situations, detecting very weak signals and avoiding overload with high reception levels
• Optimal C/N: the signal quality is always preserved thanks to a very low noise figure
• Optimal gain: intelligence auto adjusts the gain to the optimal level
• Special double-U dipole: it's open/close format provides optimal frequency response flatness
• A fully shielded switch box protects the BOSS system from impulsive noise; grounded for full protection against electrical discharge
• Low consumption in intelligent mode
• Made in Europe: Manufactured in a fully automated production and verification line that ensures the highest level of performance guarantee

TForce technology:

Televes transitions from the traditional silicon era into a new era of electronic component design, allowing integrated circuits to be precisely manufactured for microwave frequency bands. Utilizing “State of the Art” MMIC technology TForce is manufactured using semiconductor compounds such as gallium arsenide (GaAs), providing the resulting products with unparalleled features and performance

Televes has reinvented the antenna concept. Until now, an antenna was just the reception component of a TV installation in which gain and directivity were the main features. The introduction of a smart device like BOSS provides the antenna with the capacity to receive very weak signals without the risk of being affected by very strong signals, the result is a dynamic balance between weak and strong signals that provides optimum signal levels at all times: the "dynamic range" concept turns out to be the most outstanding among quality parameters.

The creation of TForce with BOSS technology using MMIC components is an extraordinary milestone in the optimization of the dynamic range. The technology that allowed the reception of lost signals from distant satellites is now allowing the enhancement of the coverage range in DTT installations.
