2005-10 Satellite Test Upconverter

 

The 2005-10 Test Upconverter takes a 70 MHz or 140 MHz signal and converts it to 2000 to 2400 MHz in 1 MHz steps with selection of high side LO (C) or low side LO (Ku) and 70 or 140 MHz input over the 2.0 - 2.4 GHz range.

Featuring low phase noise, these units are used to loop 70 or 140 MHz modulators to L-band receivers in uplinks. The 70 or 140 MHz carrier input is mixed with a synthesized local oscillator (LO) signal. The output frequency is selected with four BCD switches which control the synthesized LO. Front panel LEDs light when DC power is applied (green) and when a PLL alarm occurs (red). The mixer output is applied to the output attenuator providing a nominal gain of -10 dB (high gain) or -30 dB (low gain). Power is provided by the LNB voltage from the receiver under test and connectors are BNC female for the 70 MHz input and for the RF output. Optionally, the 2005-10 can be powered by an external wall mount power supply (option -P). The 2005-10 can be mounted on an 1 3/4” X 19 “ rack mount panel (option -R).
