About
The WiRan X-Band Splitter is a power divider specifically designed for space applications, particularly compliant with the CubeSat nanosatellite standard. It allows for the easy splitting of RF power into two channels, ensuring excellent phase and amplitude balance, low Insertion Loss, and high isolation between channels. Its small dimensions make it perfect for compact satellites. The device features an alodine coated lightweight aluminum housing, contributing to its suitability for space environments. It is fully compatible with other WiRan X-Band products, such as their diplexer and antenna, facilitating integrated communication solutions. The splitter is designed to operate across a wide operational temperature range, further enhancing its robustness for space missions. Flight Models are available with lead times depending on specific requirements, and STEP files and S-Parameters can be provided upon request.
