GaN Based Product
200W Ext. C-Band Block Up Converter
KEY FEATURES ABD200DC / ABD200DCF
♦ 5.850 GHz - 6.725 GHz output frequency
♦ Based on GaN technology: high efficiency, low
power consumption and high reliability
♦ Smallest package size and weight
♦ High power efficiency (200W min over temperature)
♦ Digital temperature compensation
♦ Field-exchangeable (F/N) IF connector
♦ 80 - 240 VAC auto-ranging powering (1100W max)
and optional 48VDC
This is a unique Ext. C-Band (5.850-6.725
♦ Power and lock status LED GHz) 200W Block Up Converter powered
with auto-ranging 80-240 VAC unit, designed
♦ Advanced M & C interface - combined RS-232/485,
for mobile applications especially when an
Ethernet and optional FSK earth station needs to be able to use different
♦ Autosensing and controllable internal 10MHz high C-Band (Standard or Palapa) transponders
stability 10-8 reference (optional) or satellites.
