Agilis Satcom ALB129 16W Compact SOTM Ku-Band Block Upconverter (BUC)
Compact chassis, excellent thermal heat dissipation characteristics, ideal for all lower power Ku-Band VSAT applications.
ALB129 16W BUC
The Agilis ALB129 16W Compact SOTM Ku-Band Block Upconverter (BUC) is an outdoor RF transmitter for satellite communication systems that's ideal for mobile, flyaway SNG, and satcom on the move (SOTM) applications where compact equipment is a must. The ALB129 16 Watt BUC is field proven under harsh environment conditions, and can withstand temperature ranging from -40ºC to +60ºC with up to 100% humidity.
Designed to be mounted on the feed horn, the ALB129 series 16 watt BUC has “Best in Class” efficiency and “lowest power consumption” drawing less than 150W. The unit works on a wide range DC power supply of 38V to 60V. Innovative and efficient thermal design makes this BUC one of the smallest, robust, reliable and rugged enough to withstand outdoor conditions in the industry.
The unit can be configured to work in 1:1 redundant mode by adding on a simple redundancy option to the basic unit.
