2009-128 Downconverter, 12.75-13.5 GHz to 950-1700 MHz

The 2009-128 Downconverter converts a 12.75 - 13.5 GHz signal to 950 - 1700 MHz with a low side local oscillator (LO) (non-inverted spectrum) for loop-back applications. Featuring low phase noise and high stability, this unit is used to down convert “clean” (having only this frequency) 12.75 - 13.5 GHz signals to 950 - 1700 MHz for loop back purposes. The 12.75 - 13.5 GHz input is mixed with a synthesized local oscillator (LO) signal to 950 - 1700 MHz. The mixer output is applied to the output amplifier providing a nominal gain of +25 dB. Connectors are 75Ω type-F (female) for the 950 - 1700 MHz output and 50Ω type-N (female) for the RF input. Front panel LEDs light when DC power is applied (green) and when a PLL alarm occurs (red). DC power is provided by the LNB voltage from the receiver under test or by an external wall mount power supply (option -P or -P4). The 2009 can be mounted on an 1 3/4” X 19” rack mount panel (option -R).
