Hi I have just broken up an old 10-Base-T 16 ay switch and recovered 16
DIL
filter/isolating transformers ( identified as a 10F434 from YCL) ....and
the
spec an pin-out was still available on the YCL web site.....worth a look
for
10MHz distribution??
I am concerned that a narrow 10MHz filter might give significant phase
shifts (the YCL is a LP) is this likely to be a problem??

--------------------------------
Yes, this type of filter will have a temperature dependent phase shift,
which can show up as a measurable frequency shift if the temperature
is ramping. In the 5071A, we eliminated these sorts of circuits for
this reason. Another reason was to get rid of adjustments. In
the 5071A, we use a larger number of fixed low loaded Q filter
elements rather than a few adjustable high loaded Q filter elements.
In a doubler (as opposed to say a X7) there is no need to have any
high Q resonators.
