Bias Tee Throughplexer with Coupled 10 MHz from modem
Orbital Design
You need a higher power BUC, but your modem cannot supply adequate DC. You need a bias tee and a separate power supply. Plus you need the 10 MHz signal to be split, half continuing through to the BUC and the other half for the system. Conventional Bias Tees shunt the 10 MHz reference signal to AC ground.
The Orbital Reference Extractor Thru Tee is a unique device, an industry first, that passively extracts and filters the 10 MHz from the modem, then divides the 10 MHz with over 30 dB of isolation between outputs, and only 3.5 dB of splitting loss, all without adding phase noise. One 10 MHz output is fed back to the BUC insertion circuits, and the second output is fed back to J4 for use as you see fit.
As with standard Orbital Bias Tees, the Reference Extractor Thru Tee allows the injection of up to 2.5A (standard) and 4.0A (high power) of current at 12 to 24 or 12 to 48 volts DC respectively.
Please note that just because you do not see a product listed, does not mean that we don't (or won't), make it. Custom sizes, custom connectors, custom configurations, custom specifications, stack, plate or rack mounting, integrations of SIP components can all be done to order.

An Orbital RET25/40 Extractor Thru Tee works as a Thru Tee - passing L band, 10 MHz reference, and DC power. It also extracts the 10 Mhz reference from the inter-facility link for use at the dish and allows for secondary DC power input. It performs low-loss impedance transforms, it filters and cleans the L band, DC power and 10 MHz signals. Many of our clients have taken the trouble to call and comment on just how much the Orbital Mux Tee has improved their system performance.
Made for Professional Use, Made for Satellite:
Orbital Systems Interface Products are made specifically for the satellite industry, and are designed for professional and industrial quality systems. Orbital SIP products are built for rack mounting, and for use indoors or out. They are also perfect at the dish or in the rack for creating a test point for live signals - without degrading ongoing operations.

Mechanical Drawing
The Orbital RET25/40 Reference Extractor Thru Tee is built for indoor mounting back-o-rack, but its 'O' ring sealed connectors and corrosion protection due to its Allodyne finish, also allow for outdoor use. The ETT-25/40 functions as a Bias Tee Throughplexer and a DC extractor. It allows for DC power from the modem to be extracted at the dish to provide power to a second device. Alternatively, it allows for insertion of additional DC at the dish

 Using a Hi Power Thru Tee to power a BUC |
Modem has DC power, but not enough to power my new BUC. |
| 4 Way Combiner with 10 MHz Oscillator and Hi Power DC insert. |
I want to lock several modems to a single 10 MHz Oscillator, and insert high power DC to my BUC. |
| Orbital 2-way Combiner using 10 MHz from one of the modems and Hi Power Mux/Tee to insert DC power |
I have a pair of modems, one of which provides a 10 MHz reference, but I don't have enough power from my modem for my new high power BUC. |
| Orbital Combiner/Divider stripping out the 10MHz from only one of two modems |
I have a pair of modems and I need to use the 10 MHz reference from one of them and split it. I need to take the L-Band signal from both modems and combine it with the 10 MHz reference. Now I need to insert DC power for a pair of high power BUCS. |
| Orbital Combiner/Divider using a MOS 10 MHz Oscillator |
I need to combine the L-Band signals from a pair of modems with an common, external 10 MHz source, and insert power to a pair of high power BUCs. |
| Using an Orbital Hi Power Thru Tee to circumvent a divider or switch |
My modem does not have sufficient DC to power my BUCs, and I can't switch DC power to the BUC, what to do? |
| Horizontal/Vertical Polarity 1 for 2 Redundant System |
We need a system that will provide us with both horizontal and vertical polarities at Ku Band. In addition, the system must offer 1 for 2 redundancy. |
