WSDU-1X8VR
WSDU-1X8VR is a wideband signal distribution unit consisting an active multicoupler. The module operates in the frequency range 20 MHz to more than 1400 MHz. Due to its excellent IP3 characteristics, the device is suitable for high performance receiving systems in SIGINT and COMINT applications.

Distribution without Loss in Level
The RF input signals are amplified using broadband low-noise amplifiers with a wide dynamic range. As a result, the distributed input signal is made available at the eight outputs of the multicoupler with approx. 2.5 dB gain. RF input and the RF outputs are SMA female connector type, located on the rear side of the module.
High Dynamic and Linearity
Components of modern radio monitoring systems must have high reception sensitivity, while signals from strong transmitters must have as little disturbance influence as possible. Due to its excellent linearity characteristics, the WSDU-1X8VR is suitable for systems with very high demands on intermodulation properties.
High Output-to-Output Isolation
WSDU-1X8VR features a high output-to-output isolation. Thus, changing the load at an output causes nearly no effects to the power level at the other outputs.
Device Monitoring
WSDU-1X8VR device is equipped with a built-in device monitoring capability which offers optical signalization of the device health as standard. For remote monitoring a variant with LAN and USB remote interfaces is available. Via the remote interfaces information about operating points of the internal wideband amplifier stages, the module temperature and the device identification can be queried in form of ASCII strings. The variant with remote monitoring supports SNMP (simple network management protocol) which enables monitoring without any effort, even in complex environments. The WSDU-1X8VR is able to identify failures and to inform the supervising system automatically. The LAN remote interface offers SNMPv2 trap function.
