Pasternack Enterprises, Inc. (Irvine, CA), a manufacturer and supplier of RF and microwave products, has introduced its new line of Wilkinson power dividers (i.e. power splitters). These multi-octave power dividers cover popular communications bands from 0.5 to 2.7 GHz including 3G and 4G, plus Wi-Fi bands, and are suited for applications such as in-building distributed antenna systems (DAS) or test environments.

Pasternack is offering two Wilkinson designs covering 0.5 to 2 GHz and 0.7 to 2.7 GHz bands. The 0.5 to 2 GHz band power dividers utilize SMA connectors and are available as 2-way, 4-way and 8-way configurations. The 0.7 to 2.7 GHz band power dividers are available with SMA or N connectors, and are available in 2-way, 3-way, 4-way and 8-way configurations. Both Wilkinson splitter designs provide accurate performance across their designed frequency bands, making them ideal for many wireless applications including in-building DAS.
