Terrasat IBUC G Ku Band 200W-1

IBUC G Series 150W / 200W Ku-Band Intelligent Block Upconverter

The Terrasat IBUC G Series Ku-Band GaN is a revolutionary Block Upconverter with advanced features such as a Gallium Nitride amplifier for increased efficiency. Integrated fully automatic gain control and ALC comes standard on all BUCs with all second generation GaN BUCs.  

The Ku-Band 150W / 200W IBUC G Series also provides new interfaces for connecting you to extensive M&C facilities for network management or local access. This powerful M&C enables trouble‐free commissioning with easy, point‐and‐click installation/configuration, continuous verification of performance with time‐stamped alarm history and simplified monitoring of terminal status.

IBUC-G comes with a complete set of diagnostic tools including:

 10 MHz input detector
 Input voltage and current monitoring
 Transmit L‐band input level detector
 Transmit RF output level detector
 User configurable thresholds and alarms

Unique to the IBUC-G are internal AGC and ALC functions that satisfy demanding applications with stringent specifications.
