DIP
switches
This company says that its new Series 97 line of half-pitch DIP switches require less than half the board space of traditional DIP switches. The switches include gold contacts for reliability, while high temperature plastics and solder coated terminals satisfy surface mount assembly requirements. Four, six and eight position switches are available from stock.

RF splitter
This company's CX4002 is an RF splitter/combiner for support of interactive broadband cable communications. In splitter mode, the product can divide one RF signal into two matched outputs, and in combiner mode it can join two signals into one output. The company says the CX4002 provides minimal signal loss while maintaining high signal isolation across a 5-1000 MHz bandwidth, and recommends it for use in hybrid fiber/coax networks and home entertainment systems.
