Charles is absolutely correct this is what I have seen in these large
splitters.
I have a really nice one that you can take the cover off and look. Lots of
screws.

What I was pointing out is that there will be *4* different isolation
figures from any one output port, not just two. The lowest will be

Just to say, the comment on the graphs that the VNA covers 50 MHz to 20
MHz, is obviously wrong. My 8720D covers 50 MHz to 20 GHz.
I do have another couple of VNAs here that cover 10 MHz. I will do some
more measurements, with a more suitable VNA when I have both splitters here
and some time for

To get the worst-case output-to-output isolation, you need to test
two output ports that are electrically adjacent (i.e., that share the

A cheap and dirty equivalent of a pass thru terminator that I use is a BNC t
connector with a 52 ohm bnc terminator. I guess you could use a CATV 75 ohm
F type with an adapter. Maybe that combination would produce too much
garbage.

is around 12 dB.
Is there any reason not to just drive that with 22 dBm or so of power to

Almost all frequency counters have an internal source which is a potential
means of injection locking an external reference if the isolation between the
internal source and the external source is inadequate. High impedance taps on a
single terminated line ensure that the isolation between such i
Friends in Time,
There's been a large amount of discussion about distribution amps on
this list.
People may be using them just because that's what's done. So I ask you:
What are we trying to isolate? The destination devices do not generate
an interfering signal, n'est ce pas?

My 2 cents. I just repurposed an RGB video distribution amp for use
with a rubidium. The board has three EL2070 (200 MHz BW) amps, each
one feeds several BNC jacks for RGB output. I only need three
separate, isolated outputs, so I am feeding the rubidium into all
three EL2070's and only taking one

I am sure there will be many answers. But yes indeed it will work fine. All
of the outputs should have the same delay also and that may be useful.
There really are the two approaches. The big power amp thats a 1/2 Watt you
are talking and the many small amps as in the distributed mode.
