Pico Macom’s TSMS-2150X Series rack-mounted satellite multiswitches can
be used in every SMATV application requiring satellite 950-2150MHz IF distri-
bution. The easy mount enclosure and all rear panel connections provide for
rack mounting or quick and easy wall mounting by simply turning the unit face
to the wall. The TSMS-2150X-8AUV allows 2 LNB inputs and 1 off-air antenna
input (40-806 MHz) and provides 8 outputs, while the TSMS-2150X-16A allows
2 LNB inputs and provides 16 outputs.The advanced circuit design incorporates
a pin diode matrix to route any of the inputs to any of the outputs by utilizing
the 13-14V Right-Circular/Vertical or 17-18V Left-Circular/Horizontal switching
control supplied by the satellite receivers, thus eliminating digital artifacts that
result from mechanical relay switching. To compensate for insertion loss, both
versions use separate built-in amplifiers for satellite and/or VHF/UHF signals.
The TSMS-2150X series, used with the external power supply, will supply
power to the LNBs reducing heat build up within the multiswitch and prolong
the life of the unit.

TSMS2150X Series
Wide frequency range
(TSMS2150-16A 950-2150MHz;
TSMS2150-8AUV 40-2150MHz)
Simple interface design provides
2 satellite polarity inputs and 8 or
16 outputs, for quick installation
All rear panel connection access
allows rack or wall mount flexi-
bility
PIN diode matrix reduces polarity
transfer time and digital artifacts
providing consistent picture
quality
Polarity is selected by receiver
supplied voltage (14V/18VDC)
compatible with most DTH
satellite services
Antenna signal combines with
satellite on output eliminating
external combining, reducing
cost and clutter
500 mA voltage power pass-
through reduces cost by
providing satellite receiver path
for LNB power
Built-in amplifier compensates
for insertion losses reducing
need of external amplification
External UL Approved power
supply reduces heat buildup thus
increasing unit life
