1. A signal splitter device for the distribution of a signal applied to an input port across at least two output ports comprising:

  • an input port for the reception of the input signal from an input signal source;

    a first diplexer device separating the input signal into a low frequency component, an AC current power component, and a high frequency component the diplexer device comprising;

    a second splitter unit to receive the high frequency component of the signal and to divide the high frequency component of the signal to a second diplexer unit and a third diplexer unit;

    a first splitter unit to receive the low frequency component of the input signal, to divide the low frequency component of the signal to the second diplexer unit and to the third diplexer unit;

    at least three inductors and at least three capacitors for separating the AC current power component from the low frequency component and the AC current power component fed by the first diplexer unit and to feed the AC current power component to the second diplexer unit and the third diplexer unit;

    a third diplexer unit to re-combine the high frequency component of the signal, the low frequency component of the signal and the AC power component of the signal and to feed the re-combined signal to a second out port;

    a second diplexer device to re-combine the low frequency component of the signal, the high frequency component of the signal and the AC power component of the signal and to feed the re-combined signal to the first output port;

    at least two output ports to receive the divided input signal comprising of the low frequency component, the high frequency component and the AC current component and to feed the divided signal to the continuance of the signal distribution network.
