Product Description
Taylor Microwave’s PD3T Series 3-Way Toroidal Ferrite Power Dividers
are broadband RF power dividers designed for applications requiring
low insertion loss, good isolation and repeatable electrical performance.
The ferrite balun transformer construction provides a compact and
cost-effective solution for dividing an RF input signal into three
output signals. Standard SMA configurations are available, along with
BNC, TNC, Type N and F connector options.
