Product details
The Norsat ELMTBKA005-AF is an ELEMENT 5W Ka-Band BUC from Norsat's ELEMENT line. It upconverts an L-band IF of 950–1450 MHz to 29.50–30.00 GHz using a 28.55 GHz local oscillator, delivering 5W rated output (37 dBm minimum P1dB and 37.5 dBm minimum Psat).
This configuration: Input connector: F-type (75 Ω); Waveguide isolator: Without isolator; Temperature range: Standard range. It runs on +15 to +30 VDC, drawing 60W max.
