ACS-008K
This 8-Way VHF Switch is designed for use in systems where LVHF / VHF / UHF transceive share common TX and RX antennas. The unit includes:
- Two independent 4-way switches for automatic TR switching and combining of 4 transceivers sharing common antennas.
- Configurable switch matrix used to select one out of 6 TX antennas for each of the 4-way switches,
- Three diplexers channels, where of two provides forward and reverse power monitoring
- Diplexer channel switch matric
- Control system with CPU, graphical display and interfaces (LAN, USB)
- 24 V power supply
- 100 W power handling for the 8 TX ports, and lower diplexer channels (under 700 MHz), and 20W CW (500 W peak) for the high diplexer channels (over 700 MHz)
