IBUC 2 DBS-Band Block Upconverters (3W - 25W)
The Terrasat Communications IBUC 2 DBS-Band provides low energy consumption for use with modems equipped with limited capacity BUC power supplies. DC power is supplied via IFL coax and extremely low phase noise better than IESS308/309 requirements.
Embedded Web pages pro-vide management for small networks using any Web browser. AGC or ALC circuits hold gain or output level constant. 30 dB User-adjustable gain in 0.1 dB steps preserves mo-dem dynamic range.
