It is used to tap out the trunk distribution lines in installationswhere many users are required using individual TMS 5x 4 to TMS 5x16 products.The TMS 55 TAP has 4 x satellite line taps and one terrestrial line tap with a 12, 15, 20 or24 dB tap loss. The insertion loss (through-loss) is as low as 1,2 dB for terrestrial signalsand 2,5 dB for satellite IF signals. The tap unit has full power pass in the trunk lines andDC pass via the tap outputs to source all power via the LNB trunk lines. This allows theuse of TMS 5x units without using individual power supplies. As this works both ways italso allows the use of TMS 5xP units as power supply for the system.Normally a TMS 55 TAP-12 is the natural choise in a TMS distribution system. However,as signal levels can be high close to the dish or just after a TMS 55 AMP amplifier, theTMS 55 TAP Series allows the system architect to compensate for the fact that higherattenuation may be necessary at the upper part of a distribution trunk as opposed to thelower end where longer cables provide for the attenuation.All input connectors are color coded to avoid installation errors and make the installationan easy and simple task.The TMS 5x Series family also comprises the TMS 5x, TMS 55 TAP, TMS 5-PSU andTMS 510 SPLIT units allowing installers to build larger cascadable systems with manysubscrber outputs.
