The sat-nms LFTXRX might be optionally equipped with internal passive 1:4 RF-Splitters, called 'LFRXv4'. These splitters are designed for dividing the received RF signal equally to 4 output ports. They also might be used as passive combiners multiplexing different signals to an optical transmit module. This option is available for L-Band only. Signals below 950MHz will be blocked by this option and are not suitable for 10MHz or 50MHz...2150MHz broadband signals. The 'LFRXv4' Splitter option causes approx. 12dB attenuation and approx. 1dB negative slope over the hole L-Band. The 12dB attenuation is caused by additional internal attenuation, therefore unused ports do not have essentially to be terminated. A special Version with lower attenuation is available on request.
Up to 10 'LFRXv4' might be installed to one sat-nms LFTXRX frame. It is also possible to equip only some slots with this option to ensure maximum flexibility.
The splitter outputs come with 50Ohm SMA as standard, 75Ohm F-type connectors are available on request.
