C-band LNB-CPL38 from UMT LLC – High-Performance Low Noise Block Down Converter for Satellite Communication and Broadcasting Systems
The C-band LNB-CPL38 is a high-quality Low Noise Block Down Converter (LNB) designed to receive RF signals in the C-band frequency range (4.75 – 5.3 GHz) and downconvert them to L-band intermediate frequencies (0.95 – 1.5 GHz). This model features a single local oscillator (LO) at 3.8 GHz, ensuring high frequency stability and reliable signal processing for satellite communications, MVDS/MITRIS broadcasting systems, and professional RF transmission setups.
Engineered for outdoor installations, the C-band LNB-CPL38 is housed in a durable, waterproof enclosure, making it ideal for use in harsh weather environments. It can be mounted in close proximity to receiving antennas for minimal signal loss. The input flange is WR-159 and the output interface is N-type female (also available with SMA on request), ensuring broad compatibility with industry-standard RF components.
This LNB is optimized for digital satellite TV systems, DVB-S/DVB-S2, and DVB-C transmission standards, and supports up to 25 carriers, making it suitable for multi-channel broadcast applications and high-density headend deployments.
