Model WM8PD-GPS-ACT-S is an eight-way active GPS splitter with SMA female connectors, designed to distribute signals from a single active GPS antenna to eight receivers while providing signal gain and DC bias to the antenna. It operates from 950 to 2150 MHz with a 50-ohm impedance, offers 3 dB typical gain, and maintains amplitude unbalance below 0.3 dB and phase unbalance under 5 degrees. Isolation between output ports exceeds 18 dB, and return loss at the RF input exceeds 10 dB. The device supplies +5VDC to the antenna with a maximum current of 250 mA and draws 80 mA internally. It supports dual power inputs: +5VDC via feedthrough or 9-18 VAC from a provided wall adapter. The aluminum enclosure measures 485 g and is rated for indoor use between -10°C and +65°C. All outputs feature DC blocking with a 200-ohm load, and the unit is RoHS compliant with gold-plated connectors.
Model WM8PD-GPS-ACT-S from Werbel Microwave is a one-input, eight-output GPS splitter. The typical application allows the GPS signal from an active GPS antenna located on the roof to be split evenly among eight GPS receivers. The WM8PD-GPS-ACT-S passes +5VDC to the antenna connected at the RF IN port by way of internal bias tee network. All outputs are DC blocked with 200Ω DC load to simulate an antenna DC current draw for any receiver connected. All eight channels provide signal gain to help overcome the loss of the splitter and associated cabling. The product is versatile in that it allows for two power supply options: 120VAC wall adapter (provided) for benchtop use, or +5VDC direct connection by feedthrough for permanent installations into chassis or rack mount systems. Manufactured in the USA.
