Reference Generator ODCI with DC Injection is a rugged outdoor 10 MHz reference and power distribution unit engineered for satellite communication systems deployed in harsh environmental conditions. Operating across 950–1750 MHz, it provides reliable RF transmission, precision reference distribution, and dual regulated power outputs for both BUCs and LNBs. Its weatherproof design ensures stable and continuous operation for remote terminals, field communication nodes, broadcast uplinks, and transportable SATCOM systems.
The Reference Generator ODCI with DC Injection integrates a high-stability 10 MHz reference (±2.5 ppm) with adjustable input/output level (–5…+5 dBm), ensuring accurate LO synchronization for frequency-sensitive RF chains. With regulated 24±0.2 V / 2 A output for BUCs and +15 V / 0.5 A for LNBs, the unit eliminates the need for separate power modules, reducing system complexity. A controlled VSWR ≤1.8 and 50Ω interface ensure low-reflection performance, while the compact 155×114×55 mm housing enables direct pole, mast, or outdoor enclosure installation.
✅ High-stability 10 MHz reference distribution for outdoor SATCOM
The built-in reference generator provides ±2.5 ppm stability, ensuring reliable LO locking for BUCs and other RF modules. This enhances frequency coherence in mobile, remote, or harsh-environment uplinks. The adjustable –5…+5 dBm level supports compatibility with different reference input sensitivities.
✅ Outdoor-grade DC injection for BUC and LNB powering
With regulated 24 V / 2 A output for BUCs and +15 V / 0.5 A for LNBs, the Reference Generator ODCI with DC Injection replaces multiple external power supplies.
