Product details
The Norsat ATOMBKU080S2AF is an ATOM 80W Ku-Band BUC from Norsat's ATOM line. It upconverts an L-band IF of 950–1450 MHz to 14.00–14.50 GHz using a 13.05 GHz local oscillator, delivering 80W rated output (50 dBm minimum Psat).
This configuration: Cooling + M&C: External Baseplate + Addressable RS-485; Add-ons: EMI/EMC Filter. It runs on +18 to +56 VDC, drawing 610W max at saturation.
