PE20DV011

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Overview

The PE20DV011 is an 8-way reactive power divider manufactured by Pasternack, designed for signal conditioning applications. It operates within a frequency range of 500 MHz to 2 GHz and features SMA connectors with a 50 Ohm impedance. The component is rated for 30 Watts continuous wave (CW) power handling. Key electrical specifications include a maximum insertion loss of 10.5 dB, minimum isolation of 20 dB, maximum imbalance of 4 degrees, and a maximum VSWR of 1.4. The unit weighs approximately 108 grams and utilizes bulk packaging.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Feature Summary

• Provides equal power division across eight output ports using reactive circuit design
• Maintains consistent phase balance with a maximum deviation of 4 degrees
• Ensures high port-to-port isolation to minimize signal interference between outputs

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Applications

• RF test and measurement systems requiring multi-channel signal distribution
• Wireless communication infrastructure utilizing 500 MHz to 2 GHz bands
• Laboratory setups for splitting signals among multiple monitoring instruments

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender configuration and cable assembly requirements against your system interface before ordering. Confirm that the 30-watt CW power rating aligns with your operational peak power levels to prevent component damage. Ensure the SMA connector type matches your existing cabling standards. Check for any environmental sealing needs if operating outside standard laboratory conditions.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Selection Notes

Select this model when an eight-way split is required within the 500 MHz to 2 GHz spectrum. Consider the 10.5 dB insertion loss impact on system gain budget compared to lower-split-count alternatives. Evaluate the physical dimensions of 4.252 inches by 4.055 inches for panel mounting constraints. Compare isolation performance against other splitters if cross-talk sensitivity is critical in your application layout.
