Terrasat IBUC 2 C Band 50W-1

C-Band IBUC Product Descriptions

IBUC 2

Description

The IBUC 2 is a compact integrated BUC/GaAs SSPA designed for higher performance & reliability. Block Upconverters based on linear GaAs amplifier technology require minimal output power backoff. 24-48-hour environmental chamber testing guarantees P_{1 dB} output power over frequency and temperature range.

Multiple sensors & a new, high-capacity microprocessor provide tools to optimize terminal performance. The IBUC 2 is a popular choice for medium-high power Satcom terminals in telecom, defense, air traffic control, government & other demanding network applications.

All Terrasat IBUCs come with a 3 year warranty.
