˝ high) compact 19˝ rack-mountable chassis with fan-cooled

heavy-duty power supply. The integrated power supply (4-module wide) is a 70-Watt capacity mod-
ule specifically designed for mini-modulator applications requiring a highly reliable DC input supply.
Sophisticated packaging and filtering techniques are used to minimize the need for overall system
filtering. The

MPC12

power supply employs high efficiency current overload technology and a

whisper quiet cooling fan to reduce heat transfer within the chassis providing cooler overall operation
and ensuring improved long term reliability.

Capable of housing up to 12 mini-modules, the 

MPC12

chassis is precision engineered to provide

smooth insertion and removal of modules within the provided slide guides. The unit employs a uni-
versal wire-harness configuration that can accommodate mini modules from 

Pico Macom

, including

agile modulators and demodulators, and those from many other manufacturers in a mix-and-match
fashion. Installation is easy. Just slide the modulator or demodulator into the racking system and
plug in the supplied power supply cable and connector. Precise and automated manufacturing and
value engineering ensure unmatched quality, timely delivery and very competitive cost. Custom
assembled and fully tested multi-channel systems are also available from 

Pico Macom

with the

combination of fixed channel and/or agile mini-modulators and demodulators to meet your require-
ments.

Pico Macom

backs up this product with its industry leading 5-year limited warranty.
