SMA 50 ohm termination

Recommended Posts

Hey all,

  Im using a PSC sma multi rf distribution. Does anyone know if the unused SMA connectors on the distro box need to have 50 ohm terminators on them? I am only using 5 out of the 8 pairs of outputs and am getting all sorts of RF interference that I am not used to getting. Worst culprit is the AD's walkies (Ch 1 is set to around 750 mHz), I'm using primarily block 21 (550 mhz). thanks

I too have some crazy RF showing up when I power in the Multi. I was told by PSC that terminators on the open SMAs are unnecessary. PSC even sent me a brand new one to test, but it yielded the same results. I'd love to know if you (or anyone else) has success with terminating the unused SMAs. I still can't figure out my problem and I've tried every cable swap imaginable. 

 

Cheers,

Evan Meszaros
