December 17, 2009 - 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, part CX2240NL, a transmission line transformer, and part CX2244NL, a flux coupled transformer. Also included is a new, small-package, surface mount RF diplex filter, part C6164NL. 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 exacting 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.
Both the transformers and diplexers are RoHS compliant and meet open cable, cable labs, and data-over-cable service interface specifications. Parts are available in tubes or tape-and-reel. The RF Diplex filter is available in trays. Additional information is available on the transformer and filter datasheets, mentioned above, found on the Pulse website.
