GPS splitter (1:2)
The GPS splitter unit (1:2) connects the the signal from one external antenna to up to two repeater units.
It is sometimes necessary to use a separate amplifier in conjunction with the splitter to ensure adequate transmission power to all the repeaters – if in doubt call or email FalTech for technical advice.
If the signal is to be transmitted to just one repeater (for example if a second device is to be installed later) the unused port should be fitted with a 50 ohm terminator.
Technical Details
- Size: 110 x 143 x 28mm
- Weight: 185g
- Operating temperature: -35 to +85°C
- Power supply not required *
- Frequency Range: 1200-1700MHz
- Impedance: 50Ω
- Connector type: TNC socket
* The splitter receives power through one of the two output ports.
A DC voltage is emitted by the attached repeater, via the coaxial feeder cable.
The voltage is passed through the splitter to the LNA in the outdoor antenna.
Waterproof (IP67) GPS 1:2 splitter unit
For environments where moisture and/or dust ingress is a problem, this IP67 version of the splitter is ideal.
The splitter specification is exactly the same as the standard unit shown above, the only differences are as follows:
- Size: 200 x 119 x 39mm
- Weight: 241g
- Enclosure: IP67
- Input connector: TNC-socket
- Output connectors: 2 x -4dB TNC socket
Example – using a 1:2 splitter to distribute signal to two repeater units
Signal loss across the device is the same on each port, -4dB.
