DX Engineering Receive Feedline Voltage Couplers
DX Engineering FVC-1 Feedline Voltage Couplers provide an interface between control switches and voltage-controlled antenna systems.
These specialized controllable bias-tee devices place 0V DC, +12V DC, -12V DC, and 12V AC output voltages onto the receive antenna feedline via the 75 ohm F connector or onto a 2-conductor control line.
These FVC-1 couplers function from below 500 kHz to 30 MHz and provide four selections for switching antenna array directions or changing from one array to another. These couplers were designed for use with; the DX Engineering receive-only four-square antenna systems, reversible Beverage antenna systems, and remote switches.
DX Engineering switch control consoles may be connected directly to the BCD switch control input of FVC-1 couplers. Alternatively, you may use your own 12V DC voltage switching system or 1 of 4 grounding switches to control the coupler by resetting internal jumpers. The connection of the feedline voltage couplers to any radio receive antenna input is to be made using either the standard RCA phono or the F connector. This allows for the use of readily available RF-compatible RCA phono patch cords or a 75 ohm coaxial cable and connectors, which protects your receive system from an accidental connection to transmitting equipment.
FVC-1 feedline voltage couplers have two LED indicators--red and green--which indicate the presence and polarity of the output control voltage selected. The LEDs may function as directional indicators that can be read at a convenient distance or they can aid in troubleshooting. Each of our DX Engineering FVC-1 Feedline Voltage Couplers comes with a heavy duty 120V AC wall transformer, which provides a safe 12V AC to operate your receive antenna system.
Here are other exclusive features of FVC-1 voltage couplers:
* Metal housing--superior shielding, rugged, and easy mounting
* Convenient installation--mount anywhere in your shack
* Rugged control connector - a reliable, solderless, and removable connector with screw conductor clamps
* Internal thermal reset fuse offers full protection against accidental shorts
