Product Overview
The 2:2 Hybrid Coupler (MHC-727-22-4F-160) is a high-performance 90° hybrid combiner designed to merge two independent signals with minimal interference. Covering the full 698-2700MHz spectrum, it is an essential component for 2G/3G/4G LTE and early 5G deployments. With its ultra-low PIM (-160dBc) and rugged IP65 rating, it ensures reliable connectivity for both sophisticated In-building Solutions (IBS) and outdoor base station co-location.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q1: How does the 2x2 Hybrid Coupler benefit In-building Solutions (IBS)?
- A: The 2x2 Hybrid Coupler is ideal for merging two signals into two outputs with high isolation (≥23dB). This is perfect for combining multiple carrier frequencies onto a shared distributed antenna system (DAS), allowing for seamless 2G/3G/4G coverage within large commercial buildings.
- Q2: Why is the -160dBc PIM rating critical for LTE and 5G co-location?
- A: In high-traffic networks, Passive Inter-modulation (PIM) can create noise that interferes with receiver sensitivity. Our Low PIM (≤ -160dBc) ensures that your signal remains clean and data throughput stays maximized, which is essential for modern LTE and 5G high-speed connectivity.
- Q3: Can this coupler be installed in harsh outdoor environments?
- A: Yes. With an IP65 Waterproof Rating and an operating temperature range of -35°C to +65°C, this coupler is designed for both indoor and outdoor applications. Its durable black finish provides additional protection against corrosion and environmental wear.
- Q4: What are the advantages of using 4.3-10 Female connectors?
- A: 4.3-10 Connectors are the industry standard for low-PIM applications. They are more compact than 7/16 DIN connectors and offer superior electrical performance with more stable mechanical contact, making them the best choice for high-reliability base station installations.
- Q5: Do you offer customization for specific project requirements?
- A: Absolutely. We provide comprehensive OEM services. Whether you need a different frequency range, specific connector types, or modified mechanical dimensions, our engineering team offers 24-hour technical support to tailor the solution to your needs.
