Two-Way Signal Splitter with SMA Female Connectors

Key Features

• High quality directional power divider

• SMA Female input

• 2x SMA Female output.

Usage

• This is a high quality low VSWR, low insertion loss RF power divider

• When in weak signal strength areas it's important to use a high quality splitter to ensure efficiency losses are kept to a minimum, minimal electrical noise, and output isolation maximised

• Poorly designed dividers can result in a signal power reduction far greater than 3dB, and signal code power reduced by significantly more.

Splitter

• The input signal is equally split into two output signals, each reduced by 3dB (ie halved) due to the 1:2 power division

• A small signal loss of 0.5dB is incurred as no RF device can operate at 100% efficiency

• When determining whether you can afford to split your signal, keep in mind that the signal will be halved between each device - the question to answer is: is your signal strong enough?

• In very low signal areas it's often advisable to use two antennas instead of a splitter.

Combiner

• While it is possible to sum two input signals with no loss, this can only be accomplished if the input signals are identical in phase and amplitude

• When two signals are completely out of phase (180 degrees) the signals will cancel completely, hence the statistical average for two unknown signals is a 3dB combination loss (ie reduced by half)

• Utilising microstrip structure technology, this splitter has exceptional in-band flatness, high isolation, very low insertion loss, excellent standing wave performance and is easy to install

• Designed for cellular mobile communications and spread spectrum communications in indoor distribution system.
