SAN DIEGO -- Pulse, a Technitrol Company (NYSE:TNL), a worldwide leader in electronic component and subassembly design and manufacturing, announces a new family of cable television (CATV) RF transformers and RF diplex filters that meet Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) 3.0 design requirements for applications such as set-top boxes, cable modems, and gateways. These components support frequency bands 5-65/85-1002MHz, 5-42/54-1002MHz, and 5-85/108-1002MHz, and are tuned and tested by Pulse to exacting specifications.
Pulse's initial offerings for this new family are two RF balun transformers, a transmission line transformer, part CX2240NL ( http://ww2.pulseeng.com/products/datasheets/C260.pdf,), and a flux coupled transformer, part CX2244NL (http://ww2.pulseeng.com/products/datasheets/C261.pdf). Also included is a new, small-package, surface mount RF diplex filter, part C6164NL (http://ww2.pulseeng.com/products/datasheets/C258.pdf). All parts have been designed for new CATV technology products to exacting electrical specifications and come in industry-standard mechanical packages. The diplex filters provide electrical RF signal management with very low RF emissions and are fully enclosed in a metal shield or enclosure.
DOCSIS 3.0 is a CATV industry standard, developed to enable service providers to deliver more services by adding bandwidth to CATV’s existing hybrid fiber-coaxial infrastructure.
"Pulse RF DOCSIS 3.0 products are tuned and tested to exacting specifications in the factory. Pulse provides competitive market pricing and high-volume production capability. These products are immediately available, or Pulse can provide custom designs on request,” said Fred Roden, senior product manager, Pulse Network Division.
