This Iso-Divider from Crane Aerospace is a 2-Way K band power divider with an integrated isolator that operates from 18.2 to 22.2 GHz. It is a high isolation power divider that removes the need for additional components and connectors. Removing these components improves reliability and allows enhances electrical performance.
The power divider provides an isolation of over 38 dB, insertion loss of up to 2.4 dB, return loss of over 17.7 dB and a phase balance of 5 degrees. The device can handle up to 1 W of power and is available in a module that measures 1.86"×1.81"×0.54" with SMA female connectors.
This product provides the ability for a Satellite receiver or transmitter to share antennas in a redundant configuration. This is a critical function which demands low insertion loss and exceptional performance. Matching the power divider and isolator characteristics allows the best overall unit performance to be achieved.
