FEATURED PRODUCT

2-18 GHz Transceiver

Full Duplex transceivers have a frequency down conversion path for signal reception (RX) and an alternate up conversion path for signal transmission (TX), separate RF ports typically multiplexed with a diplexer in the antenna coupling unit and separate IF ports for connection to the base band unit (MODEM). Both the RX and TX converters have separately tunable local oscillators with DDS in the loop fine grain tuning capability of 100Khz. Intermediate frequency (IF) 1.00 – 2.00 GHz with 500MHz IBW for both converters. The Transceiver unit is capable of rapid tuning (< 100 ns) in coarse frequency steps of 500 MHz.
