Overview

I0JXX Power Dividers

I0JXX Power Dividers serve as RF combiners and splitters for 50 ohm VHF/UHF and EHF antennas and feedlines. They are hand-tuned with advanced test equipment to achieve the specified frequency range.

I0JXX Power Dividers are made with Type N and 7-16DIN female common connectors and precision Type N antenna port connectors for extremely low loss and constant impedance. They are constructed with aluminum tubing and solid metal center conductors to make air dielectric coaxial lines with nearly immeasurable insertion loss.

Power Dividers are used in VHF and UHF multi-Yagi stacked arrays to impedance match two, three, four, six or eight horizontal Loop or Yagi antennas. Standard low-loss 50 ohm coaxial cable Type N male assemblies, each the exact same length are required from each antenna feedpoint to its respective power divider port. But phased wavelength cables are not required. All Yagis or horizonal loops are fed together in phase, separated by the proper stacking spacing, and pointed in the same direction. As compared to a single antenna, stacked Yagis can yield 3 dB gain for two antennas and practically 6 dB gain for four antennas, with only minor losses deducted for the feedlines, connectors and the power divider. Each pair of stacked antennas nearly doubles the effective radiated power of the station.

Available now at DX Engineering, I0JXX Power Dividers offer a superior way of combining and splitting RF in stacked Loop or Yagi arrays.
