17.4.1.5. Wideband Asymmetric Coupler (07-015105)
The purpose of Wideband Asymmetric Coupler (07-015105) is to tap off a known portion (in this case
30dB) of RF signal from transmission lines and to combine them, for example through splitter units for
different purposes (alarms/monitoring etc.), whilst maintaining an accurate 50Ω load to all
ports/interfaces throughout the specified frequency range. They are known formally as directional
couplers as they couple power from the RF mainline in one direction only.

17.4.1.6. Switched Attenuator 0.25W, 0 - 15dB (10-000901)
In many practical applications for Cell Enhancers etc., the gain in each path is found to be excessive.
Therefore, provision is made within the unit for the setting of attenuation in each path, to reduce the
gain.
10-000901 provides attenuation from 0 - 15dB in 2 dB steps The attenuation is simply set using the
four miniature toggle switches on the top of each unit. Each switch is clearly marked with the
attenuation it provides, and the total attenuation in line is the sum of the values switched in. They are
designed to maintain an accurate 50Ω impedance over their operating frequency at both input and
output.
