Ex broadcast industry - great for LNB RF splitting to multiple receivers
Cross Technologies Inc
Designed & Manufactured in USA
1584 Series - Model 29S
Multi-AC input 100 ~240V SMPS
Strong (and heavy) all steel case
If you have a satellite signal where the LNB IF is in the range 950Mhz - 2.05Ghz (pretty standard for Ku & C band LNB's) and need to supply that signal to multiple satellite receivers without the problems associated with signal loss when using passive splitters, this equipment is what you need.
The S suffix indicates that this model has NO LNB power insertion facility
1RU Rack mount x 290mm deep
Professional active RF LNB signal splitter
IF range 950Mhz - 2050Mhz which suits most Ku & C band LNB's
In-Band Characteristics
Gain: 0 dB ± 1.0 dB
Frequency Response: ± 1.0 dB (950Mhz - 2.05 GHz)
± 0.5 dB any 20 MHz increment
Port to Port Isolation> 18 dB, 20 dB typ
Dual RF/IF inputs to 8 x 2 outputs - these are arranged as two independent sets i.e 1x LNB RF input to 8x ouputs and another 1x LNB RF input to 8x outputs
Two monitor outputs are also available at the front panel
0dB gain
Surge suppressors on each input to protect against HV transients
All splitter outputs are AC coupled - no DC is present on the outputs
75 Ohm impedance inputs and outputs
F type female connectors used throughout
AC operation (fused) via the rear IEC male connector
Single power supply - no redundancy built in.
COSMETIC CONDITION:
In excellent condition, no damage to the all steel casing and no damaged connectors etc
TESTING:
NO power ON-OFF switch, always ON operation
Powers up fine.
SMPS (PSA45A) has been checked and is the correct DC voltage output (23.5V)
Green led is lit
Connected a stock standard Ku satellite system LNB and checked for correct signals on each of the outputs, everything is fine although I had to make "arrangements" to send power up to the LNB because this splitter does not have in-built power for the LNB.
Designed for the commercial or professional satellite receiver installation as this unit is rack mounted, heavy and quite large.
Currently still available on the Cross Technologies product catalogue with a list price of US$1175
