Description:
The TLCN2, a bidirectional 2-way
splitter/combiner, provides two identical
combining sections for UL and DL which
can be used:
¾ to combine 2 RF signals into a
common RF output
¾ to split an RF input into 2 RF output
signals
It is a passive wideband module.
RF ports:
• 1 DL common RF port (“C”)
• 2 DL splitted RF ports (“1”,“2”)
• 1 UL common RF port (”C”)
• 2 UL splitted RF ports (“1”,“2”)
Note
: each port is bidirectional.
TLCN2 main applications
Main applications of the TLCN2 module are:
• Connecting a donor source to more than
one TFLN master optical TRX, so that:
¾ TLCN2 splits the DL input coming
from a donor source into 2 output
signals entering 2 different TFLN
master optical TRX
¾ TLCN2 combines the UL inputs
coming from 2 TFLN master optical
TRX into 1 common signal entering
the donor source
• Connecting a TFLN master optical TRX to more than one donor source
within the same service, so that:
¾ TLCN2 combines the two DL inputs coming from 2 donor sources into 1
output signal entering the TFLN master optical TRX or a cross band
coupler
¾ TLCN2 splits the UL input coming from TFLN master optical TRX or a
cross band coupler into 2 different output signals entering 2 different
donor sources.
More TLCN2 modules can be used in cascade connections.
