Mainline Passives

Splitters

MGLSH series 1 GHz and 1.2 GHz mainline splitters come in 2-port, 3-port, and 3-port balanced configurations.

Directional Couplers

Antronix directional couplers are built to last. 6 kV ring wave protected and encased in zinc alloy die-cast housing, plated with nickel alloy.

Power Inserters/Extractors

Antronix high current power inserter can handle up to 30 amperes of AC input. Our flexible and rigorous extractors provide AC power to up to three outdoor wire access points.

Line Equalizers

Available with Antronix patented Milenium USP with dual make-before-break switch for uninterrupted signal and power.

Antronix offers an extensive series of mainline passives to meet every design requirement, and to support the DOCSIS 3.1 extended bandwidth. We manufacture and distribute 1 GHz and 1.2 GHz power inserters, line splitters, and directional couplers that can handle 15 amperes continuously on all ports. As an additional reliability measure, all units can withstand 25 amperes for two hours. The mainline passives can also withstand multiple 6 kV surges (per IEEE C62.41-1991 Cat. B3). Antronix mainline passives have a 4-stage corrosion protection process to withstand harsh environmental conditions.

To ensure our mainline passives exceed industry performance standards, Antronix has developed a proprietary ferrite core material and circuit design. This design, and an environmentally robust housing, provide unmatched performance and reliability.

With the C-series, Antronix offers high-current mainline passives. The PCB is mounted in the housing, rather than in the faceplate, so upstream and downstream signal and power are uninterrupted during troubleshooting or repairs.
