INT-9916 Tunable Microwave Upconverter

Overview

The INT-9916 is a tunable microwave upconverter. It accepts an IF input at 70 or 140 MHz and a bandwidth of 40 MHz and upconverts this to microwave with a tunable center frequency of 5.8 to 6.9 GHz. A tunable YIG based synthesizer is used to generate the microwave carrier. Its extremely low phase noise makes the INT-9916 an ideal upconverter for digitally modulated IF signals such as 256 QAM. Tuning step size is 1 MHz. The INT-9916 is enclosed in a half wide 1U (1.75" high) rack mount chassis, and operates from either120 / 240 VAC 50/60 Hz AC power, or 9 – 18 VDC power.
