Technetix: XFO SA 9" stretch tap

Feb. 26, 2025
Technetix's XFO solves challenges presented by legacy housings.

Technetix's XFO solves challenges presented by legacy housings. With an advanced electro-mechanical design, XFO enables the connection of legacy in/out screw contacts with the XFO's 1.8 GHz components and printed circuit board (PCB), which creates a flat in/out response and acceptable return loss levels on official housings. Offering superior RF performance to 1.8 GHz, the XFO SA 9" stretch tap range can use signal conditioning plug-ins and is compatible with originally manufactured SA 9" housings.
JUDGE'S COMMENT: "Technetix's XFO addresses challenges like signal reflections, resonance from coaxial cables, and water ingress while maintaining compatibility with existing housings, avoiding the need for new installations or additional hardware."
