Contiguous Diplexer
30-90 MHz & 90-520 MHz
SKU: 21-80-49
The 21-80-49 is a diplexer having a negligible “dead” bandwidth between upper and lower frequency bands which crossover at 90 MHz. Low insertion loss and VSWR combined with reasonable isolation enable separate 30-90 and 90-520 MHz radio outputs to be connected to a single wideband antenna such as to provided continuous frequency coverage over the whole 30-520 MHz band. Only at the 90 MHz crossover point plus a few MHz either side of it does insertion loss and VSWR rise and isolation reduce. See graphs showing typical values.
