Benefits and Application

FEATURES/BENEFITS

▪▪Same-band combiners are designed for combining cellular

base stations in a similar frequency band to a common
antenna or feeder

▪▪Low insertion loss

▪▪Low passive intermodulation
▪▪Cost- and design-optimised units for XPol antennas
▪▪Suitable for indoor and outdoor applications
▪▪DC/AISG bypass
