RO.VE.R. Expands its range of Multiple Active Satellite Splitters with the NEW RAS-3 platform

Although this is a mature product, after a careful market analysis, we concluded that the Satellite Communications (SATCOM) market required new products that were reliable (double PSU), with wider bandwidth & easy scalable with 3 modules/parts to allow different configurations, reducing in this way the number of parts to be ordered/stored.

In the last years the Satellite Communications market, has enormously increased the Transponders capacity to supply more and more data. HTS (High-Throughput Satellite) Transponders, therefore, require wider bands, with better linearity (flatness), better Impedance matching (Return Loss) and obviously always at competitive prices.

To meet these requirements, Rover has developed the RAS-3 series of products which, with only 3 types of modules (4 way, 8 way & 16 way splitter), can be used in many configurations, easy to assemble and program.

This project was focused on important improvements of the most important parameters:

  • The Noise Figure, brough to 7 dB, against 10/12 of competition.
  • Intermodulation, raised to 45 dB, against 30/35 of competition.
  • A wider frequency band 350-3000 MHz, against 950-2150 MHz of competition.
  • Best Price/Performance.
