This series of synthesized, 1 RU panel height, dual-conversion converters operates in the standard C-, X-, and Ku-communication bands. An internal microwave synthesizer provides frequency tuning in 125 kHz or 1 kHz minimum frequency steps over the RF band. Local control is with a front panel keyboard and remote control is by RS485 input command. Up to thirty-two discrete frequency and attenuation settings may be programmed into a nonvolatile memory. Level control is available via the front panel keyboard or the remote control interface.

Features:

  • Low phase noise
  • Low intermodulation distortion
  • No spectral inversion
  • Status monitors
  • Summary alarm
  • 32 programmable frequency and attenuation settings
  • Nonvolatile memory
  • 30 dB level control, local and remote control
  • IF signal monitor output, -20 dBc
  • Contact closure band lockout (upconverter)
  • Low C-band second harmonic output (upconverter)

Options:

  • Output amplifier for increased dynamic range (upconverter)
  • Higher stability reference
  • RF signal monitor
  • Remote RS422, RS232, IEEE-488 or contact closure
  • 140 MHz IF frequency, 80 MHz bandwidth
  • Higher gain (downconverter)
  • 50 ohm IF impedance
  • LO level alarm
