1.0 General
1.1 Equipment Description
The 2415-402 Upconverter has four individual channels, each one converts 70 MHz to 950 to 2150 MHz in 125
kHz steps using PLL in “exact frequency mode” with low group delay and flat frequency response. Synthesized
local oscillators (LO) provide frequency selection. Push button switches select the output frequency, gain, and
other parameters. Front panel LEDs provide indication of DC power, PLL alarm or Remote operation. Gain is
adjustable manually over a 0 to +30 dB range in 0.5 ± 0.5 dB steps. The frequency and gain of each channel are
also remotely selectable. Parameter selection and frequency and gain settings appear on the LCD display.
Connectors are Type F female for the RF, and BNC female for the IF and
external 10 MHz reference input and
output. The
10 MHz reference can be inserted on all RF lines. The table below shows available options.
SSPB
+24 VDC option V1, can be inserted only on the channel 1 RF line.
The 2415-402 is powered by a 100-240
±10% VAC, 47-63 Hz power supply, and is contained in a 1 3/4” X 19” X 16” rack mount chassis.
