Small 3-way RX splitter / combiner board
The splitter or combiner is a very useful device. It can provide equal voltages, equal current, or equal power to matched or unmatched loads.
Like all passive splitters and combiners, this device is less than ideal. Isolation is maximum only when at least one port are properly terminated.
In this case isolation between the three splitted/combinated ports is maximum when the main port is properly terminated.
This HW is designed only for RX line. Both impedances 50 or 75 Ohm can be selected by the jumper.
Main functions:
- Info:
Broadband: 0.1 MHz to 60 MHz 3-way Splitter or Combiner Low loss In to Out is typ. -5,8 dB 50/75 ohm impedance - easy jumper switch
- Quality SMA connectors.
- PCB size = 50 x 50,4.
- Aluminium enclosure size W x H x L = 58 x 24 x 50.
- Available as
