They're often called splitter-combiners, and
there's a
reason for that.

Inside that mystery box is nothing more than 3,
5, or 7
wires connected together. The shell of the
splitter-combiner serves to connect the outer
shielding
of the coax cable, and the center pins are
connected
through these wires.

There is more to it than that.

True; but I think it makes the point without going
overboard about it.
