The companies "GPS Source" and "GPS Networking" make so-called "networked"
splitters which have very high isolation between ports and which, as a
bonus, do not require unused outputs to be terminated.
How does this work? The incoming signal is amplified by roughly 25 dB, then
split several ways
A resistive splitter has essentially no useful port-to-port isolation, in
addition to the
excess splitting loss problem. For this reason, resistive splitters are
usually used
only when very broad frequency ("DC to daylight") coverage is needed.
Many RF splitters are of the Wilkinson variety, or
Hi
Pretty much *any* splitter will have issues with outputs being un-terminated.
Resistive splitters are really no worse that others. The problem that they have
is 6db of loss per split rather than 3db.
The Symmetricom units are not immune to this. They have a single amplifier that
drives a
I keep forgetting to do a thread about this.
I recently (er, perhaps a year ago) picked up a Microlab unit, and was
very disappointed, notably the output simply isn't built to handle being
plugged into units that provide antenna power, with each port ending up
having a DC path to ground (at 200

Maybe an antenna in the loft might produce better results? Check it

Or, it could be that the UV coating is really a multi-layer dielectric
coating, not metal at all,
in which case it would have negligible impact on L-band signals.

Hi
One significant thing to consider:
How many GNSS bands do you want / need / wish to cover?
A while back, you would be fine just grabbing GPS and Glonass on one band.
These days
widening things out to two or three bands may make sense. There are an ever
increasing
number of devices that
I have a couple of these and they work wonderfully well:

They also have an option that you can power with an external
supply, which is a nice feature if you need it.

Sysmocom has a 16-channel GPS
Hi
It’s well worth getting an antenna into a good location before you
play with splitters. Things like the amount of gain needed may change
as coax runs get longer.

Sending something like this to google ”gps splitter site:febo.com” is a good
start to search the archives.
