Abstract:
1. A termination block for coupling a differential signal device and a single ended signal device, the combination comprising: a housing; a first pair of coaxial connectors mounted to one side of the housing for coupling to the differential signal device; a second pair of coaxial connectors mounted to another side of the housing for coupling to the single ended signal device; and an electrical circuit comprised of elements that connect between the first pair of coaxial connectors and the second pair of coaxial connectors, the electrical circuit providing impedance matching between a differential signal device connected to the first pair of coaxial connectors and a single-ended signal device connected to one of said second coaxial connectors, and the electrical circuit being symmetrical about a central plane passing midway between the first pair of coaxial connectors and the second pair of coaxial connectors.
