El Acoplador direccional de 12 dB (Part number: 1200571) de la marca C-COR es un Acoplador Direccional Coaxial con una banda operando de 1.0 GHz . El acoplador coaxial direccional es un dispositivo pasivo que se utiliza para dividir la energía entre los puertos, básicamente extrae una parte de la energía del circuito de transmisión principal y la redirige a uno o más puertos acoplados. Este tipo de dispositivo se usa principalmente en el campo de la tecnología de radio y generalmente tiene un alto aislamiento entre los puertos. El acoplamiento impacta directamente en la pérdida de inserción, por lo tanto, ten en cuenta que cuanto menos acoplados estén los puertos, menor será la pérdida de inserción.
A directional coupler is an unequal power divider; a splitter is an equal power divider. Both have the abbreviation TFC (trunk/feeder coupler) in their model names because they split your network’s trunk and feederlines. A line power inserter passively combines radio frequency (RF) signals with up to 90 volts alternating current (VAC) from a line power supply. This device enables a single cable to service the power and signal requirements of active modules in a broadband telecommunications network. Directional couplers, line splitters, and line power inserters consist of a main circuit board and a housing. The housing’s environmental coating protects the module from the most severe conditions. A wire mesh gasket maintains RF integrity, while a rubber gasket prevents weather from affecting the module’s operation. A 90° rotating seizure mechanism lets you install directional couplers and splitters easily in a variety of configurations. Feed‐thru connectors can be used with cable up to 0.625‐inch in diameter. Pin connectors, which enable you to accommodate larger diameters, also give better RF performance than feed‐thru connection. All models have direct‐entry ports with heat‐shrink ridges and cable strip gauges. Line power inserter is available in two models: 9‐LPI/22A and 9‐LPI/22A‐ACM‐3. The ACM‐3 model provides heavy‐duty surge protection.
