Shure AXT630US Antenna Distribution System

The AXT630 Axient antenna distribution system delivers ultra-linear amplification and precision filtering for optimal performance. Features include wideband filtering and up to 15 dB of selectable RF attenuation for signal-to-noise optimization.

The AXT630 offers selectable 60 MHz input filters that match the available frequency bands of Axient transmitters, providing extra protection from strong out-of-band signals and a lower overall RF noise floor. Four BNC antenna output pairs distribute filtered signal to receivers, and an unfiltered RF cascade port is included to connect wideband devices like the Axient Spectrum Manager. Networkable via Ethernet connection, the AXT630 enables WWB6 control of filtering ranges, antenna power and attenuation.
