These devices are used for splitting and combining CT100 (or RG6) cabling. They are bi-directional
and so perform two functions. Firstly, they are used to split signals from the external antenna
eg satellite LNB signals from the dish, FM/DAB from the antenna, or
UHF from the aerial prior to decoding. Secondly, they can be used for combining decoded ouput from
the modulated RF output of a VCR, a digibox or a modulator, prior to becoming the uplink
to the distribution amplifier.
Connections require the use of 'F' type fittings on the co-ax cable.
Channel Plus 2512
Splits/combines 2 into 1. This unit has a 3.5dB loss. It
allows DC and IR pass-through permitting the use of remotely located IR control systems, such
as the Labgear HandLink and Digilink
or the Channel Plus 5 volt system built into the Channel Plus
DA-8200HHR distribution amplifier and Channel Plus 5500 series
modulators
Channel Plus 2514
This unit performs the same functions as the 2512
but now splits or combines 4 into 1. The loss through it is 8.0dB.
