Terrasat IBUC 2G X-Band GaN Intelligent Block Upconverter (7.9 - 8.4 GHz) 100W
Freq. range 7.90 to 8.40 GHz, IF 950 to 1450 Mhz, Input Connector Type-N female (50 Ohm), RF Output Interface CPR-112G
IBUC 2G 100W X-Band Intelligent Block Upconverter
The Terrasat IBUC 2G 100W X-Band GaN is a revolutionary Block Upconverter with advanced features such as a Gallium Nitride amplifier for increased efficiency. Integrated fully automatic gain control and ALC comes standard on all BUCs with all second generation GaN BUCs
The X-Band 100W IBUC 2G Series also provides new interfaces for connecting you to extensive M&C facilities for network management or local access. This powerful M&C enables trouble‐free commissioning with easy, point‐and‐click installation/configuration, continuous verification of performance with time‐stamped alarm history and simplified monitoring of terminal status
IBUC-2G comes with a complete set of diagnostic tools including:
10 MHz input detector
Input voltage and current monitoring
Transmit L‐band input level detector
Transmit RF output level detector
User configurable thresholds and alarms
Unique to the IBUC-2G are internal AGC and ALC functions that satisfy demanding applications with stringent specifications.
