The SPEEDLAN Up Converter is a remote mounted, bi-directional frequency translator and amplifier that enables any SPEEDLAN 2.4 GHz radio to operate in the 5.8 GHz band. The converter is completely transparent to the user.
The SPEEDLAN Up Converter is a remote mounted, bi-directional frequency translator and amplifier that enables any SPEEDLAN 2.4 GHz radio to operate in the 5.8 GHz band. The converter is completely transparent to the user. In normal operation, the converter "up-converts" the 2.4 GHz radio to the 5.8 GHz band (during transmit), and "down converts" 5.8 GHz to 2.4 GHz on receive. No user adjustment, configuration or provisioning is required. The converter may be used to replace an existing SPEEDLAN amplifier (also requires a new antenna and DC injector), and will provide relief from the congestion the 2.4 GHz band. The same coaxial cable may be used between the DC injector and converter as is used with current SPEEDLAN amplifiers.
