Receiver MulticouplersPRO-ARHP...GS-...

19 Rack-Mountable High-Performance HF Receiver Multicoupler series with 1 input and 4, 8, 12 or 16 outputs

Description

  • Multicouplers for the LF, MF and HF band. 100 kHz - 30 MHz.
  • For use where a number of receivers have to share the same antenna.
  • Active wideband receiver multicouplers for the LF, MF and HF bands with 1 input and 4, 8, 12 or 16 outputs.
  • Allows a number of receivers to share the same antenna without interaction and loss of signal.
  • Wide frequency range: Covers 100 kHz - 30 MHz. If only a smaller frequency range is desired, a customer specified preselector can be built into prevent possible interference from strong transmitters outside the frequency band of interest. Procom A/S offer a number of band specific filters intended for preselector use. Please refer to the preselector overview and specify frequency range when ordering.
  • Ultra-high dynamic range amplifier built in to compensate for loss in multicoupler network.
  • The excellent large signal behaviour of the amplifier ensures handling of strong RF signals with very low levels of IM and harmonic distortion.
  • Low amplifier noise figure ensures negligible S/N deterioration of the received and distributed RF signals.
  • High isolation between receiver outputs.
  • Built-in signal limiter to protect amplifier input from signals larger than 10 V pp
  • Built-in DC grounded 100 kHz HP filter to protect amplifier input from strong V LF noise e.g. during thunderstorms.
  • Static discharge protected by Gas Discharge Tube across the input.
  • Operates on 230 V AC or 115 V AC mains supply or 12 V or 24 V DC supply (depending on type, see ordering designations).
  • Galvanically isolated power supply with power backup function.
  • Automatic switching to DC supply if the mains supply fails.
  • ”POWER ON” lamp on front.
  • Mains supply connector: IEC type fitted with noise filter.
  • DC supply connector: Terminal block fitted with noise filter.
  • RF connectors: N-female on all ports (other types on request).
  • 19” rack module housing.
  • Only 1 HU (PRO-ARHP4GS and PRO-ARHP8GS) or 2 HU (PRO-ARHP12GS and PRO-ARHP16GS) (1 height unit = 44.45 mm).
  • Available with black anodized front plate.

    Please Note:
    Power cable is not included, must be ordered separately, see Accessories.
