L-Band Up/Down Converter STC 8360UD

L-Band Up/Downconverter

The STC 8360UD is a high-performance, fully synthesized L-Band Up/Downconverter indoor unit, housed in a light standard 1RU (1.75 in.) 19"wide rack, providing space-saving and convenient solution for systems, requiring frequency conversion between IF(70MHz or 140MHz) and L-Band interfaces.

The unit contains independently synthesized L-Band Up and Down converter modules, monitor and control microprocessor board, internal reference source and AC voltage auto-sensing power supply.

Impressive amplitude linearity, ultra low phase noise, far exciding IESS 308 / IESS 309 requirements, low spurious, high dynamic range make the converter ideally suitable for SCPC, MCPC, DAMA with high data rates transmission and advanced digital modulation.

Features Highlight:

  • Independently synthesized up and down frequency conversion
  • Dual conversion frequency plan
  • User friendly interface
  • Excellent phase noise, far exceeding IESS 308/309 standards
  • Exceptional amplitude linearity, very low intermodulation
  • External 10MHz reference input, automatic sense of external reference signal
  • Software selectable spectrum inversion on Downconverter
  • Advanced local and remote RS485/RS422 and RS232 monitoring and control interface
  • Smart 2 fans air cooling system

Applications

  • Fly-Away Terminals
  • Satellite multi-service systems
  • Satellite ground stations
  • VSATs and Hubs

Options

  • 125 kHz frequency step size
  • High-stability internal reference
  • VDC support of ODUs, different voltages are avalable
  • 10 MHz reference out mute control

L-Band Upconverter STC 83601U

L-Band Upconverter

The STC 83601U is a high-performance, low-cost synthesized dual conversion Upconverter, providing solution for satellite systems requiring frequency conversion up from IF to L-Band.

Impressive amplitude linearity, ultra low phase noise, far exciding IESS 308 / IESS 309 requirements, low spurious, high dynamic range make the converter ideally suitable for SCPC, MCPC, DAMA with high data rates transmission and advanced digital modulation.

The STC 83601U standard model has +15 dBm minimum output power level at P1dB compression point and 30dB gain, which allows for longer cable runs, making it possible in many cases to work without external line amplifiers.

Features Highlight:

  • Built-in 1:N redundancy switching capabilities
  • Exceptional performance parameters, low cost by design
  • Local and remote RS485/RS422/RS232 monitoring and control interfaces
  • Automatic 10 MHz internal/external reference selection (auto-sensing)
  • 10MHz reference signal out for ODU, user controlled
  • Built-in internal temperature and output power monitoring
  • RF Mute mode, 80 dB minimum
  • Smart 2 fans air cooling system
  • Customization to user requirements is available

Applications

  • Digital Satellite News Gathering systems (DSNG)
  • Uplinks systems
  • Fly-Away Terminals
  • Satellite multi-service systems
  • Satellite ground stations
  • VSATs and Hubs

Options

  • 125 kHz frequency step size
  • 18VDC/24VDC/48VDC support for outdoor equipment
  • High-stability reference
