Description
Model 50PD-570 SMA is a 50 Ohm reactive 8-Way power divider/combiner that operates 800-2400 MHz. It uses the reactive Wilkinson splitter design which is ideal when the application is to fan-in or fan-out RF signals with minimum loss. It is only available with SMA female coaxial RF connectors. It has one divider port and eight combiner ports. Any signal from divider port to combiner port will have insertion loss (i.e. 9 dB nominal loss). Any signal from a combiner port to another combiner port will have isolation (i.e. minimum of 20 dB loss).
See our Power Divider Application Note for functionality differences between resistive type and reactive type power dividers. Also examined are the differences in construction, insertion loss, and isolation between a resistive divider, a toroidal divider, and a Wilkinson divider.
