AtlanTecRF has introduced its new SDT range of Divider Trays for Satcom ground stations, teleport operators and systems integrators. The functionality of divider trays is relatively simple but the convenience factor delivered to the user brings considerable benefits in terms of installation time and readiness for connection.
In many satellite communications ground stations, there is a need to divide an uplink, downlink or L-band signal for distribution to multiple feeds and, in the past, this has often been achieved by attaching co-axial power dividers to the rack system cabling. Electrically, this traditional method works well but, for a systems integrator, it’s not the neatest of solutions and often requires some on-site mechanical installation which is time consuming and does not make the best use of skills in time-limited installs.
AtlanTecRF’s solution is to provide a 1U x 19” rack chassis, in keeping with the majority of all the major elements of the ground station, which can be very easily slid into place and cabled up. Standard 8, 16 and 32 way dividers are available in all bands from L, through S, C, X, Ku, DBS and Ka to Q-band.
The series of Divider Trays, according to AtlanTecRF, brings to the Satcom community an incredibly versatile and cost-effective route to feed connectivity and continues the company’s drive to put the user in first place. Click here to learn more about these divider trays.
