9800 SERIES
FREQUENCY
CONVERTERS
MULTI BAND
FEATURES
• Supports expandable NSU 1:N
switchover series (D-323)
• Amplitude slope adjust
• Three monitor and control ports:
1.Standard RS485/RS422 remote
interface which can be substituted
with RS232
2.RS485/RS422 control interface (J7)
which can be configured to control
an external HPA or as an alternate
remote interface
3.10/100Base-T Ethernet interface
• RF, IF and LO monitor ports
• Automatic switching to external 5/10
MHz reference and electronic
frequency adjust of internal reference
frequency
• Low intermodulation distortion
• Better than IESS-308/309 phase noise
• 64 programmable memory locations
• 30 dB level control
• External alarm input via contact
closure
• Date and time stamped event log
• CE Mark
The MITEQ frequency converters are designed for
advanced satellite communication systems and are
available for a wide variety of frequency plans. Phase
noise, amplitude flatness and spurious outputs have
been optimized to provide the user with a transparent
frequency conversion for all video and data
applications.
A strong feature set of monitor and control functions
supports powerful local and remote control. Among
the features are control of frequency, attenuation and
64 memory locations for each converter where
various setups can be stored and recalled.
A continuously updated log of time-stamped records
of activity is also provided.
