Splitters / Branch Units

As the name suggests the branch units are placed in the line to split the signal. These are placed at a level and ore drive intersections to break the line into a balanced split. The branch units are regarded as passive devices although they are required to pass the DC to the active devices further down the line.

The branch Unit is placed in the line rather than a simple "T" piece to ensure that the line is correctly balanced. The branch units are labeled as per their orientation similarly to the amplifier units. Branch units are supplied complete with 3 coaxial connectors to suit specific terminations. The enclosures are similar to the Line Amplifiers.
