Picosecond Pulse Labs 5315A Broadband Differential Pulse Splitter 0.2-17GHz SMA

Manufacturer: Picosecond Pulse Labs PSPL

Model: 5315A-104

Condition: Used. Comes in non-original packaging.  This splitter is in Good cosmetic condition.  Note: the end of the non-inverting input does not lie in exactly the same plane as the end of the inverting output; the non-inverting line length is adjusted so the output phases differ by 180º.
