Values for the optional Terrestrial-passive versions vary obviously.
Subject to change without notice! Class A might be valid only for SAT IF for some product types > 9 Inputs.
Improvements of measured values might happen during product lifecycle and might not be up-to-date in this datasheet. All Multiswitch up to 9 IN and 16 OUT are full CLASS A compliant. All models are SAT-IF Class A.
