Integrated Return Combiners 

Model Number:

IRC-211 and IRC-311

Description:

Integrated Return Combiners

Today’s services such as Video-on-Demand (VOD), Switched Digital Video (SDV), telephony, high-speed data, and internet gaming require high-end RF signal management equipment, with the right functionality and best parameters in the smallest rack space possible.

Our IRC Series provides efficient space for new features and functionality without any interruption of existing services. Our integrated Return Distribution Systems, Models IRC-211 and IRC-311 have been designed to be used as a stand-alone device or to be wired in tandem with ViewTEQ Integrated Return Path Combiners IRC 313, 314, and 316 for design of more complex return path design configurations.

IRC-211 is a combination of 16 independent two output 16dB directional couplers.

IRC-311 is a combination of 16 independent two-input combiners with a loop-thru, providing a total of 32 inputs, 16 combined outputs and 32 1:1 loop-through outputs in a 3RU chassis.  You can also connect the unit as splitters only, providing 16 inputs, 32 outputs and 32 additional feed inputs, or as a combination of splitters and combiners.  Inputs and outputs of different sections can be interconnected, further increasing functionality and complexity of the network.

FEATURES:

• Very wide bandwidth (5-200 MHz) with possible frequency stacking & destacking
• Very high isolation, excellent return-loss & frequency response
• Can be installed as standalone units to provide RF combining or splitting or expanding the number of inputs & outputs of other IRC Series return combiner units
• Both chassis are 19” wide
• IRC-211 is 2RU, IRC-311 is 3RU
