HP 58515A GPS L1 1:2 Distribution Amplifier

The HP 58515A allows two GPS receivers to share a single antenna in both manufacturing and position/timing applications.

[ Features ]

Ability to be cascaded without adding separate amplifiers and bias-tees between splitters
Port-to-port isolation eliminates interaction between multiple GPS receivers
Ability to pass dc power to the antenna via the RF port simplifies installation
