CDS6E-694/3800
6dB Directional Coupler

Rev : P2 | Rev date : 15 Jan 2026

RFS CDS**E series Directional Coupler has been designed for outdoor applications covering 694 to 3800MHz. Units couple off a defined fraction of signal from 6 to 30 dB with minimal reflections or loss. The frequency range allows use with antennas and leaky cable systems and in wireless base stations.  With minimal solder joints, the dissipative loss has been minimized and reliability enhanced.

Features / Benefits

  • 6 dB coupling value
  • Low insertion loss

High power handling, Small size, Low weight, N-female connectors, -155 dBc PIM
