PD2012 Features & Benefits
Overview
PD2012 is a RoHS compliant, 12 way, wideband, 50 ohm, power divider, power combiner furnished with type-N female coaxial connectors. All wireless band applications in the frequency range from 698 to 2700 MHz are covered with optimal performance. Max microwave input power levels up to 40 watts can be handled in both power splitter and power combiner applications. See 12 way power divider input rating tables for more detail.
Electrical
The heart of the unit is a precision designed and etched Wilkinson type microstrip circuit on a low loss, high frequency, dielectric substrate. The Wilkinson microstrip circuit passes DC current to all ports making it ideal for use in active systems. Power splitter dividers passing DC to select ports and blocking DC to others are also available. See options (right). A true 12 way power divider, power combiner with equal power split and balance, the PD2012's electrical performance is highlighted by 1.5 dB max insertion loss (above the -10.79 dB power split), 18 dB min isolation, 1.45:1 max input VSWR and 1.25:1 max output VSWR. Equal power split and balance is displayed by 0.5 dB max amplitude balance and 8 degrees max phase balance. Narrow band RF performance over your frequency range may be even better. See 12 way type N female power divider test sweeps for specific details.
Mechanical
Mechanical features include precision CNC, brass, 50 ohm N type female coaxial connectors with tri alloy plating to insure tarnish resistance and low PIM operation. Connector pins are gold plated phosphor bronze for reliability and low contact resistance. Virgin electrical grade PTFE support insulators captivate the contact pins enabling trouble free coaxial connector mating. Long term operation and superior shielding is assured by the rugged CNC machined aluminum housing with clear chemical film finish. Secure mounting is provided by four 0.15" diameter (3.81 mm) through holes. RoHS construction includes no-lead solder and a finish free of hexavalent chromium.
Physical
Housing dimensions are 11.98" wide by 3.48" deep by 0.88" high (304.3 x 88.4 x 22.2 mm). The N-type female connectors extend 0.65" (16.5 mm) from the housing. Operating temperature range is from -65°C to +85°C. Weight is 1200 grams. See 12 way RF power splitter outline drawing for more info.
Applications
The PD2012 12-way, N female (jack), power divider (splitter) combiner is ideal for a wide range of wireless radio frequency microwave applications on both transmit and receive sides, ranging from amplifier sharing & receiver combining to antenna splitting, and is deployed world wide in networks encompassing 700 MHz Public Safety Band, 800 MHz cellular, GSM 850, 900, 1800 & 1900, PCS 1900, 1 GHz to 2 GHz L-Band, GPS, W-CDMA-3G, UMTS, TETRA, RFID, IEEE802.11b/g, 2.45 GHz ISM, Wi Fi and 2.3 GHz & 2.5 GHz WiMAX.
