1x8 Amplified GPS Splitter

Overview

ALDCBS1X8 One Input, Eight Output Amplified GPS Splitter

The ALDCBS1X8 GPS Amplified Splitter is a one input, eight output device based on the Wilkinson splitter design. The frequency response covers the entire L-band (all GNSS frequencies) with excellent gain flatness. In the standard configuration without external power, Output 1 (J1) passes DC from the connected GPS device through the splitter to the input (antenna port), allowing the GPS receiver to power both an active antenna and the splitter’s internal amplifier. The other RF outputs (J2-J8) are DC blocked and loaded with 200 resistors to simulate the antenna current draw to prevent false antenna alarm faults.
