Herley-CTI (HCTI) series BUC block upconverters offer broadband frequency coverage with very low phase noise in a compact package.
This series offers products specifically designed for commercial and military SatCom ground terminal applications in the Ka band frequency spectrum. The Herley-CTI series BUC utilizes HCTI’s proprietary millimeter wave technology enabling excellent performance and ultra low phase noise. The phase noise for a 29 to 30 GHz BUC is typically -105 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset, and 1.7 degrees when integrated 10 Hz to 25 MHz.
The series BUC offers an optional adjustable conversion gain of 0 to 30 dB in 0.1 dB steps and an optional 60 dB mute function that operates on command or unit fault.
Several standard models are available that provide high quality signals for both military and commercial applications. Herley-CTI can also custom tailor the BUC to specific applications. Contact the factory to discuss your special requirements.
