Tait is a major mobile comms manufacturer-head office is here in
Christchurch, NZ-a couple of miles down the road from me.
The T801 is/was often used in simulcast systems (which seem to be peculiar
to the UK) to lock up several base station equipments to a common
reference-which is usually a 12.8 MHz high quality OCXO. But I suggest you
ask a few pertinent questions of the vendor to find out more about that
particular box, as it may be slightly different, depending on where it came
from.

Hi
Unless we are looking at different auctions, that one appears to want 13.8
V at <= 5A
as the supply.
The BNC’s are also a fairly rare item in the Telco inventory (but not
unheard of).
If I had to bet, I’d say it’s a piece of mobile video gear. I would not
bet anything over
about a nickel on that being correct. It’s very much a mystery item other
than possibly
having an offset frequency translation function.

What little I can tell is they are telco references so there may be
something good inside OCXO or RB. It looks like it runs on -48VDC from
the
ebay pix. Its output could be any of the typical telco references that
are
not 5 or 10 MHz. These are pure guesses. The Price seems reasonable.
Good luck

Are these the references with a rubidium oscillator ? They seem to have
similar models with OCXOs etc.
