DEV
America
LP
announced
it
is
now
shipping
its
new
Core
Function
Products
(CFP)
series
Active
L-band
Splitters,
the
DEV
2161
and
DEV
2162.
By
focusing
on
core
functionality,
the
CFP
series
offer
up
to
70%
costs
savings
compared
to
DEV’s
standard
devices,
while
still
offering
the
high
RF
transmission
quality
for
which
DEV
devices
are
known.
The
announcement
follows
recent
news
that
DEV
started
shipping
its
CFP
series
bi-directional
RF
switches,
as
DEV
continues
to
rapidly
expand
its
Core
Function
Products
family.
The
CFP
model
DEV
2161
and
DEV
2162
are
Active
L-Band
Splitters
for
the
500
to
2300
MHz
frequency
range.
They
offer
excellent
RF
performance,
including
high
isolation
and
flat
frequency
response
in a
compact,
modular
1RU
chassis.
The
base
chassis
comes
with
one
splitter
unit
with
four
(DEV
2161)
or
eight
(DEV
2162)
output
ports.
Each
chassis
is
optionally
expandable
by
up
to
three
additional
splitter
units.
Each
splitter
unit
provides
DC
blocked
on/off
switchable
LNB
power
at
the
input
port.
Like
all
DEV
CFP
models,
the
new
CFP
Active
L-Band
Splitters
offer
the
same
high
quality
RF
performance
as
DEV’s
feature-packed
standard
product
series.
However,
CFP
models
are
streamlined
to
core
features
and
support,
offering
savings
for
cost-sensitive
applications.
DEV’s
standard
product
series
is
also
available
to
meet
a
wide
variety
of
other
types
of
applications,
such
as
those
requiring
additional
types
of
features
and
support.
