The Johansson 4520 is a TAP-type coaxial distribution component with 1 input and 2 tap outputs. At 10 dB insertion loss and 25 dB port isolation, it extracts signal for two subscriber drops while allowing the main trunk to continue with high residual signal strength.

DC pass functionality enables supply voltage to travel through the coaxial cable, allowing active components such as masthead amplifiers or LNBs to be powered directly from the line without a separate feed.

Key Features

• TAP configuration: 1 input, 2 outputs
• Frequency range: 5–2300 MHz, covering terrestrial, satellite, and DOCSIS bands
• DC pass on the input port
• Insertion loss: 10 dB
• Isolation between output ports: 25 dB
• Return loss on input and output: 10 dB

Product Benefits

• Low 10 dB tap loss preserves strong signal levels on the trunk for subsequent distribution stages
• Two simultaneous outputs serve two subscriber drops from a single tap point, reducing the number of components in the installation
• 25 dB isolation between ports limits signal leakage between the two tapped outputs and the through path
• Wide 5–2300 MHz bandwidth accommodates terrestrial, satellite, and broadband signals in a single passive component

Why You'll Love It

• The two-output, 10 dB combination is ideal at the first or second tap position on a long trunk where signal budget must be conserved
• Serves two drops simultaneously without requiring an additional passive splitter downstream
• DC pass keeps the active antenna power path intact through the tap without extra hardware
• Johansson 452x format aligns with the 451x single-output series, allowing mixed configurations in the same enclosure
