The PUL 070A PULA00702150SZB000 from Quintech Electronics is an ultra-stable agile frequency converter that features phase noise and stability performance that exceeds the IESS 308/309 standard, and is suitable for all current high-speed data transmission rates and advanced digital modulation schemes. It is capable of translating 70 MHz IF signals to L-Band signals (950-2150 MHz) in 125 KHz steps. The L-Band frequency and frequency sense is selectable via the front panel keypad and LCD display.
Multi Functionality
Quintech’s PUL Series L-band up converters are suitable for all current high-speed data transmission rates and advanced digital modulation schemes. They are frequently used in test loop translator applications and any application where it is necessary to convert between intermediate frequency and an L-band frequency.

Features
Very low phase noise characteristics, maintaining a cleaner signal
Ideal solution for test loop translator applications
Convenient, well organized rack mount configuration
Supports Legacy 70 MHz Equipment
System Operation
The front panel keypad and LCD screen are used to set various operating parameters and to monitor and control the agile PUL. Depending on the task being performed, various submenu screens will appear. Upon applying power to the agile PUL, a product identification screen will be displayed briefly, followed by the Main Menu.

Internal Storage
The agile PUL is capable of storing between one and four user-designated L-Band frequencies and their corresponding frequency sense (inverting/non-inverting) in the agile PUL’s internal memory (channels 1 through 4). The L-Band frequency to which the 70 MHz IF signal is converted is that which is contained in the memory channel that is currently displayed in the Main Menu. For example if the channel in the Main Menu is displaying channel 1 and it has a specified frequency of 1200.000, the 70 MHz IF signal will be translated to an L-Band frequency of 1200 MHz.
