AGILIS ALB180 10W C-Band VSAT Outdoor Block-Up Converter N Input (BUC)

IKtechcorp is the distributor for Agilis satellite, vsat communication products. LNB, BUC, Line Amplifier, Filter, Isolator, Unit Controller, RF

Agilis ALB180 K-Series 10W C-Band BUC (Block-up Converter) is a highly cost effective outdoor RF transmitter for satellite communication. The BUC has very high output power linearity and works well from -40ºC up to 60ºC. The BUC also has a wide input voltage range which allows it to work from 18V to 60V for 5W and 10W models. Agilis C-Band BUC is designed for high reliability operation in various applications such as flyaway antenna. The BUC also has one of the best M&C features in the industry. Easy to install, it is redundancy-ready and field-proven for any harsh operating environment. It is suitable for both data and voice communication operating in different modulation formats.Agilis C-Band BUC offers a wide range of distinctive advantages and enhanced features for satellite communications systems based in remote or challenging geographic regions. The equipment employs L-Band interface to the indoor unit. Agilis ALB180 K-Series C-Band BUC is an ideal solution suitable for broadband application (such as DVB- RCS) in satellite IP networks.
