A new Components Mounting System will be among products demonstrated by ETL Systems, a global designer and manufacturer of RF distribution equipment for satellite communications, at this year’s IMS show in Florida.

Flexibility and ease of use is at the heart of the design of the 1U 19 inch chassis which accommodates a range of different modules, including two-way, four-way and eight-way splitters and combiners.

The new system is already in use, with a prominent market leader in the oil and gas sector being among the first customers. It can also be used for broadcasting and on satellite teleports.

“Depending on the application the customer is using it for, they can fit all two-ways, all four-ways, all eight-ways or a combination of all,” said Dominic Overton, Components Sales Executive, ETL Systems. “It is ideal for use in VSAT applications for the oil and gas sector because of its flexibility to accommodate different stacks and modules all within the one chassis. Another advantage is its very compact, making it the perfect solution for sites where space is at a premium.”

Visitors to IMS will also be able to see a demonstration of ETL’s new Ku and Wide band splitters and combiners. Both of these are available in two-way, four-way or eight-way with 50Ω impedances and SMA connector types. Typical applications include telecom infrastructures, military comms and radar networks, with the products offering consistently excellent RF performance.

More established products in ETL’s huge RF components range will also be available to view, including multiplexers, couplers, equalisers, and passive and active splitters and combiners.

Customers who are not able to find a product off the shelf to meet their specifications will be able to talk to ETL’s expert team about custom design and build. With a quarter of century of experience in designing award-winning RF equipment, ETL can meet even the most complex of individual specifications.
