Ku-Band Intelligent Block Upconverter
The Terrasat Intelligent Block Upconverter (IBUC) offers integrated BUC/SSPA
packaging for higher performance
and reliability.
IBUC Advantages
DC power can be supplied
via IFL coax or separate
DC connector for 4W
through 16W models.
Guaranteed rated output
power across the entire
operating temperature
range and frequency band.
Low phase noise exceeds
IESS308/309 requirements
by a minimum of 10dB.
Embedded web pages
provide management for
small networks using any
web browser.
AGC or ALC circuits hold
gain or output level constant.
16dB User-adjustable gain
in 0.1 dB steps preserves
modem dynamic range.
Advanced customer interfaces:
- TCP/IP HTTP with embedded web pages.
- SNMP
- TELNET through TCP/IP
- FSK through TX IFL cable.
- RS232/485 serial port.
- Handheld terminal.
1+1 switching logic built into IBUC eliminates expensive external
controller.

Features
|
|
Compared to traditional 70 MHz solutions, the IBUC offers significant
benefits:
- Lower terminal cost
- Simpler design and installation
- Superior RF performance
- Simplified 1+1 configuration
New interfaces connect you to the IBUC's extensive M&C facilities
for network management or local access. This powerful new M&C
enables:
- Trouble free commissioning with easy, point-and-click
installation/configuration
- Continuous verification of performance with alarm history.
|
- Simplified troubleshooting of terminal faults.
The IBUC comes with a complete set of diagnostic tools including:
- 10 MHz input detector
- Input voltage and current monitoring
- Transmit L-Band input level detector
-
- Transmit RF output level detector
- Alarm history
As always, the IBUC carries Terrasat's guarantee of rated output
power across the operating band and specified temperature range. Unique
in the IBUC are internal AGC and ALC functions to satisfy demanding
applications with stringent specifications.
|
The IBUC is manufactured in a modern Morgan Hill, CA facility to the
same exacting quality processes as the PowerPlus series and OEM
microwave products. Each unit undergoes rigorous testing, burnin at
elevated temperature, BER, and final testing over temperature so that
you are assured of a high quality, reliable product.
