System Description

5720 series transmitters are available in various power levels from 2.5 to 100

watts average power or 10 to 230 watts peak analog. Units can be factory set to a

specific channel in the 2076-2700 MHz range. QAM signals up to M=256 as well as

NTSC and PAL modulation can be processed by the unit. A center frequency of

either 44 MHz or 36 MHz can be set at the factory prior to shipment.

All 5720 series transmitters are compatible with SCADA . Using SCADA allows

operators to monitor and control systems from remote locations.
