♦ Mixer Coax device sums two or more signals into one
♦ Splitter Coax device divides a signal into two or more smaller and approximately equal signals.
♦ Combiner Coax device adds several discrete signal inputs to one and has high isolation between inputs
♦ Duplexer Coax device separates 2 signals within the same band
♦ Diplexer Coax device separates 2 signals in different bands
♦ Tap Coax device uses for matching impedance or connecting subscriber drops
♦ dB Decibel, to express either a gain or loss power ration(log) after the signal has been transmitted
