Overview
The 3115-290#-1200 Agile Block Upconverter converts 1200 ± 200 MHz to 29.0 to 31.0 GHz in 1 MHz steps. This unit converts 1200 MHz to 5.5 GHz and then 5.5 GHz to 29.0 - 31.0 GHz. Synthesized local oscillators (LO) provide frequency selection. Multi-function switches select the RF frequency, gain, and other parameters. Front panel LEDs provide indication of DC power (green), PLL alarm (red), and remote operation (yellow). Variable attenuators for the 1200 MHz input provide a gain range of 0 to +20 dB as adjusted by front panel switches. Remote operation allows selection of frequency and gain. Parameter selection and frequency and gain settings appear on the LCD display. Connectors are BNC (female) for 1200 MHz and external 10MHz reference input and output, and 2.92 mm (female) for the RF output. It is powered by a 100-240 ±10% VAC power supply, and in a 1 3/4” X 19 “ X 14” rack mount chassis.
