We are all too aware of the age old issue of slope In the case of Taps, the satellite L band spectrum (950~2150MHz) becomes increasingly sloped with the addition of each Tap in to an IRS trunk Till now we have used slope control built in to amplifiers to counteract this, but this can only go so far in correcting the issue With the introduction of Wideband (WB) LNB’s the issue of slope has been exacerbated as the WB spectrum is, as the name suggests, even wider at 290MHz ~ 2340MHz! The disparity of Digital Channel Power (DCP) between transponders in band should not exceed 10dB Unfortunately we see more than this level of disparity off-air at the LNB Add to that the slope incurred with the addition of each Tap and, to put it mildly, we have a problem on our hands To address this issue Whyte Technologies are proud to announce the launch of a new range of 5 wire WB/Quattro Taps with Trunk EQ Developed by Whyte Technologies, Trunk EQ is an inbuilt trunk Equaliser that provides equal through loss at all frequencies between 290MHz to 2340MHz which results in no slope being introduced The new range of Whyte WB/Quattro Taps with Trunk EQ come in 1 way and 2 way Taps as well as a Splitter The range can be directly connected to Whyte Series 5 and Series D dSCR multiswitches by using the supplied push fit couplers which reduce installation time New Range of 5 wire WB/Quattro Taps The issue of slope….RESOLVED!
