Coupling Decoupling Network for 75 Ohm Coaxial Cable
The CDN-C75E Coupling Decoupling Network is designed to test products that utilize 75-ohm coaxial cables for data communication.
Developed for conducted immunity testing on 75 Ω coaxial signal and data ports, compliant with IEC/EN 61000-4-6 and CISPR 16-1-2, enabling controlled RF disturbance coupling on coaxial interfaces.
Supports a frequency range of 150 kHz to 230 MHz when operating as a Coupling/Decoupling Network, covering the full conducted RF immunity spectrum required by IEC/EN 61000-4-6.
Optimized for coaxial cables with a nominal 75 Ω transmission line impedance, commonly used in video, broadcast, instrumentation, and telecommunications signal paths.
Provides the specified 150 Ω common-mode impedance across the test frequency range, meeting impedance and phase performance requirements defined by IEC/EN 61000-4-6 and CISPR 16-1-2.
Accommodates up to 40 V RF input voltage with a maximum current rating of 1 A, allowing stable injection of immunity test levels while maintaining safe operating margins.
Equipped with 75 Ω BNC connectors for the EUT and auxiliary equipment ports and a 50 Ω BNC RF input, enabling direct connection to coaxial interfaces without cable modification.
Constructed with a rugged metal enclosure bonded to a conductive stainless-steel base plate, ensuring effective grounding and repeatable performance during conducted immunity testing.
Supplied with individual NIST-traceable calibration, including a defined voltage division factor, supporting accurate, repeatable, and traceable establishment of calibrated drive levels.
Applies RF common-mode disturbances onto 75 Ω coaxial communication lines while maintaining isolation and uninterrupted signal flow between auxiliary equipment and the EUT.
Well suited for real-world immunity evaluation of products using 75 Ω coaxial interfaces, such as broadcast video equipment, CCTV systems, cable distribution hardware, RF receivers, instrumentation, and professional audio-video devices.
Allows manufacturers to verify conducted immunity robustness of coaxial ports under operational conditions, ensuring products continue to function correctly when exposed to RF disturbances on signal lines.
Integrates into complete conducted immunity test systems when used with Com-Power 150 Ω to 50 Ω adapters, 50 Ω terminators, appropriate attenuators or directional couplers, and Com-Power ACS series power amplifiers, providing a comprehensive solution for 75 Ω coaxial-port immunity testing.
