18.2 X HYBRID MODULE
The RFL 9780 X-Hybrid Module is a transformer-type hybrid typically used to combine the outputs of two
transmitters. The X-Hybrid provides the required impedance matching and signal separation, and prevents
mutual loading of the two transmitters. The impedance characteristics of the two types of X-Hybrid modules
is shown in the table below.

Greater than 25 dB, from 60 to 500 kHZ, when operating with the specified termination
impedances.
Power Capacity:
10 Watts rms.
Two-Wire Line Impedance:
50 Ohms standard; other impedances are available on special order.
Second Harmonic Distortion:
At least 80 dB below the fundamental frequency.
Third Order Intermodulation Products:
At least 60 dB below the fundamental frequency.
