The Diplexer with DC Inserter for 10 MHz and L-Band is designed to combine or separate 10 MHz reference signals and L-Band frequencies, while also facilitating DC power insertion. This device is particularly useful when an external 10 MHz reference signal is required for Low Noise Block downconverters (LNBs) or Block Upconverters (BUCs). It is recommended for use with Swedish Microwave’s 10 MHz reference oscillator or other compatible 10 MHz signal sources.
Key Features:
- Low Insertion Loss: Ensures minimal signal loss for L-Band frequencies.
- Outdoor Rated (IP67): Built to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
- Wide Operating Temperature Range: Operates effectively between -40°C to +80°C (-40°F to +176°F).
- DC/10 MHz/L-Band Multiplexing: Combines or separates DC power, 10 MHz reference signals, and L-Band frequencies efficiently.
- Connector Options: Available with F-type, N-type, or SMA connectors to suit various applications.
