Ku-band Frequency Transceiver – High-Stability RF Converter for Satellite Uplink and Downlink by UMT LLC
The Ku-band Frequency Transceiver by UMT LLC is a high-performance, dual-function RF unit that integrates both upconversion (Tx) and downconversion (Rx) into a single compact device. Designed for professional satellite communication systems, the transceiver ensures efficient and accurate signal transmission and reception within the Ku-band frequency spectrum. It is optimized for VSAT networks, broadcasting headends, mobile satellite terminals, and teleport infrastructure.
📡 Operating Frequency Ranges:
-
Receive (Rx) Frequency Range: 10.95 – 12.15 GHz
-
Transmit (Tx) Frequency Range: 13.75 – 14.50 GHz
-
Output Power at 1 dB Compression (P1dB): ≥ [Insert value] W
These ranges are fully compliant with ITU satellite frequency allocations and ideal for two-way Ku-band satellite links in DVB-S/S2 and IP-based systems.
🔧 Technical Highlights:
-
RF Architecture: Integrated Upconverter + Downconverter
-
Local Oscillator: High-stability PLL-based synthesis
-
Phase Noise: Ultra-low for clean modulation
-
Gain: High conversion gain with flat frequency response
-
Connectors: SMA or N-type (50 or 75 Ohm, customizable)
-
Power Supply: 24 VDC or 220 VAC (optional adapter)
-
Cooling: Passive heatsink or active cooling (model-dependent)
-
Remote Monitoring: Optional Ethernet or RS-485 interface
