Radio Frequency
Distribution Unit
(RFDU)
Intelligent RF signal routing and distribution for complex shipboard communication architectures.
The software-controlled Rx/Tx/Antenna Switching Matrix (SoS-SM 5000) automatically connects transceivers and/or receivers with surface and portable antennas across the frequency range of 0.1 to 500 MHz and an optional capability of 0.5 to 6 GHz (LO).
The Rx/Tx Switching Matrix basically consists of a Receive (RXDU) and a Transmit (TXDU) Distribution Unit. The number of inputs and outputs can be freely determined.
The Rx/Tx Switching Matrix is designed for applications on ships ranging from submarines to frigates and corvettes with RF signals of up to 160W CW (TKW peak). The RXDU & TXDU units can be individually, locally, and remotely controlled via Ethernet interface.

Software-controlled Rx/Tx/Antenna switching automatically connects transceivers and receivers with surface and portable antennas.

Wide-band operation from 0.1 to 500 MHz, with optional capability from 0.5 to 6 GHz (LO).

Configurable numbers of inputs and outputs with support for RF signals of up to 160W CW.

Designed for submarines, frigates, corvettes and shore installations, with local and remote control via Ethernet.
