UHF converters are intended for reception, amplification and conversion of working frequencies of input signals from 3.0…12 GHz frequency range to 2.0…2.5 GHz.
RS/DC 3-12 converter is designed as a heterodyne receiver with a preselector. 3.0…12 GHz frequency range is covered by 4 input filters with 2.0-2.5 GHz bandwidth.
The heterodyne system uses a synthetic signal with low phase noise. The converter is controlled either via RS232, or via I2C.
The converter is designed as a board of 3U format with hermetically soldered covers. Such design allows integrating it into any hardware. For external use, the converter is mounted into a special housing.
