The ACTX-Ka40W-Ex-V5 from Acorde is a RF Block-Up Converter (BUC), that converts an Input frequency from 950 to 2000 MHz to an output frequency from 27.5 to 31 GHz. This BUC has been designed for Ka-band satellite communication systems. It integrates a power supply, phase locked oscillator, power amplifier and frequency converter in the module. The BUC delivers a saturated output power of 46 dBm with a gain of more than 65 dB. The ACTX-Ka40W-Ex-V5 has been tested and calibrated between -20 and +60 Degrees C and also includes a temperature alarm and power supply shutdown to protect the amplifier from permanent damages in high temperature conditions.
