MODEL 1584-29 RF Splitter

1.0 General

1.1 Equipment Description - The Model 1584-29 is two, nine way, 0.95 - 2 GHz, 0 dB gain splitters in a 1

Rack Unit chassis with redundant 100-240 ±10% VAC power supplies. Each splitter provides fused DC power

insertion on the input connector center pin, surge protection, and excellent RF characteristics. Each splitter has a

monitor connector on the front panel and eight outputs on the back panel. Two individual 90-260 VAC input power

supplies provide a diode OR’d + 22 VDC voltage for internal amplifiers and for DC to power external amplifiers

(often Low Noise Block converters or LNBs) through DC power inserters. Each LNB power line is separately

fused. A surge suppressor on each splitter input protects against high voltage transients. All splitter outputs are AC

coupled so no DC appears on their center conductors. On the front panel, green LEDs indicate presence of +22

VDC at each LNB power supply output and DC voltage test points allow monitoring this voltage with a voltmeter.

Presence of power from the +24 VDC power supplies is shown by the AC Power A and B green LEDs.

1.3 Environmental Use Information

A.Rack-Mounting - To mount this equipment in a rack, please refer to the installation instructions

located in the user manual furnished by the manufacturer of your equipment rack.

B. Mechanical Loading - Mounting of equipment in a rack should be such that a hazardous condition

does not exist due to uneven weight distribution.

C.Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,

the operating ambient temperature of the rack may be greater than room ambient temperature.

Therefore, consideration should be given to Tmra.

D. Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow

required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. Additional space between unit

may be required.

E. Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply

circuit and the effect that overloading of circuits could have on over current protection and supply wiring.

Appropriate consideration of equipment name plate rating should be used, when addressing this concern.

F. Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular

attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connection to the Branch

(use of power strips).

G. Top Cover - There are no serviceable parts inside the product so, the Top Cover should not be removed.

If the Top Cover is removed the ground strap and associated screw MUST BE REINSTALLED

prior to Top Cover screw replacement. FAILURE TO DO this may cause INGRESS and/or EGRESS

emission problems.

2.0 Installation

2.1 Mechanical - The 1584-29 consists of one RF printed circuit board (PCB) housed in a 1 RU (1 3/4 inch

high) by 12 inch deep chassis. Redundant, switching, +24 VDC power supplies with the DC output diode OR’d

provide redundant power for the internal and external amplifiers and LEDs. Connectors are type F, female for the

RF connections. The 1584-29 can be secured to a rack using the 4 holes on the front panel. Figure 2.1.shows how

the 1584-29 is assembled. J27 and J25 connect DC Power to the fuses as shown and J30 and J29 connect the DC

voltage from the power supplies to the PCB as shown.

2.4 Operation -

1.) Connect RF cables to the 1584-29 (See Section 2.2).

2.) IF DC VOLTAGE IS REQUIRED ON THE SPLITTER RF INPUT CENTER CONDUCTOR,

install 1/4”, 1 amp fast blo fuses in Fuse 3 and/or Fuse 4 holders.

CAUTION! IF FUSES ARE INSTALLED IN THE Fuse 3 OR Fuse 4 HOLDERS, +22 VDC WILL APPEAR

ON THE CORRESPONDING SPLITTER INPUT CONNECTOR CENTER PINS.

3.) Connect 100-240 ±10% VAC, 47 - 63 Hz to AC A and AC B on the back panel and observe

A and B LEDs are lit on the front panel.

4.) Monitor RF signals on the front panel monitors and DC voltage to the external amplifiers

(Front panel Green ON LEDs should be lit if LNB fuses are installed in the rear panel fuse holders)

to insure proper signals and voltages.

NOTE: FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, THE MONITOR PORT AND SPLITTER PORTS SHOULD BE

TERMINATED WITH 75 OHM TYPE F TERMINATIONS WHEN NOT USED.

5.) AC Fuse - The fuse is a 5mm, 2 amp fast blo and is inserted in the far slot in the drawer below the AC

input as shown in Figure 2.6. There is a spare fuse in the near slot. If a fuse continues to open, the power supply is

most likely defective. Note that each power supply module within the chassis also has a fuse but failure of this fuse

indicates the power supply may be defective.
