ESCRIPTION

The Transceiver is designed for use in communication systems, or in satellite uplink data
systems, for the reception of SCC/MCPC, DAMA, and TDMA communication signals.
It also can be used in communications system applications with full transponder HDTV
and analog TV.

The converter is environmentally sealed and is designed to be hard mounted on or near
the antenna structure. A covered cooling fan is mounted on the outside of the unit to
maintain a reduced operating temperature for enhanced reliability.

WARNING

The Downconverter RF input connector is wired to supply DC voltage to an LNA. This voltage is
capable of damaging any test equipment connected to the connector. Do not connect test equipment
to this connector without a coaxial DC block between the connector and the test equipment.
