With Auxiliary L-Band Output Ideal For ENG/SNG and Video Broadcasting Applications

Dual Conversion • 125 kHz Step Size

The model U-9696-3-L is a Ku-Band upconverter covering the 13.75-14.5 GHz band that provides an L-band monitor output to a rear panel SMA connector. This enables the operator to monitor the uplink signal using an L-band receiver or spectrum analyzer. The L-band monitor signal occurs at a fixed frequency of 1.22 GHz and a level of -2dBc, relative to the input, less any input attenuation.

This Ku-band frequency upconverter uses an internal synthesizer to provide frequency tuning. Level control is available via the front panel or the remote control interface.

Features:

  • Local or remote control (RS485)
  • Output amplifier for increased dynamic range
  • Low intermodulation distortion
  • Low phase noise
  • 32 programmable frequency and attenuation settings
  • Nonvolatile memory
  • 30 dB level control
  • IF signal monitor output, -20 dBc

Options:

  • Higher stability reference
  • Remote RS422, RS232, IEEE-488, or contact closure interface
  • 140 MHz IF frequency
