75 Ohm CATV Switches: SKY13547-490LF and SKY13548-385LF

Skyworks 75 ohm switches serving Set Top Box (STB)RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for two Skyworks 75 ohm switches serving set top box (STB) applications. The SKY13547-490LF and SKY13548-385LF SPDT switches support both forward and reverse path applications for DOCSIS 3.0 and DOCSIS 3.1 with a frequency range of 5 to 1800 MHz. High linearity typifies these switches as well as low insertion loss (0.3 dB for the SKY13547-490LF and 0.4 dB for the SKY13548-385LF) and high input and output return loss of 20 dB.
