Wisycom MATF Antenna Matrix/Combiner

For centralized RF distribution, the Wisycom MATF is an RF over fiber antenna matrix/combiner that brings fiber and coax antenna feeds together in one compact frame.

Made for theater, corporate, broadcast, and OB work, it covers 170 to 1260 MHz and combines up to 8 zones in diversity. In software you set it up as 8 zones into 4 outputs, or as two sets of 4 zones into 2 outputs.

A built-in spectrum analyzer checks each input before the MATF switches it into the combined signals, and the analyzer monitors the combined signal too. Over the coax, the MATF controls the gain and filters of Wisycom’s LFA and ADFA smart antennas and BFA modules. You configure it on a large color touchscreen or remotely over Ethernet.

Its input modules are coax or optical. An optical module comes without a multiplexer (No Mux in the options, with two LC/APC connectors) or with one (Mux, with one SC/APC connector). The MATF takes up to 6 optical modules in all, on single-mode fiber. It runs on AC or DC power.
