Product details
The Norsat ATOMBKA050M2CFP is an ATOM 50W Ka-Band BUC from Norsat's ATOM line. It upconverts an L-band IF of 1.0–2.0 GHz to 30.00–31.00 GHz using a 29.00 GHz local oscillator, delivering 50W rated output (47 dBm minimum Psat and 44 dBm minimum linear power).
This configuration: Cooling + M&C: External Baseplate + RS-485 & RS-232; Add-ons: EMI/EMC Filter + Surge Protection. It runs on +20 to +56 VDC, drawing 580W max at saturation.
