1 INTRODUCTION
OVERVIEW 1.1
7010STC-O3b-A and 7010STC-O3b-B are highly reliable and innovative Block Up-converters (BUC)
specially designed for O3B satellite communication uplink system. This equipment converts the IF
signal (7010STC-O3b-A:1052-1788 MHz, 7010STC-O3b-B: 972-1871 MHz) to RF signal (7010STC-
O3b-A: 27.652-28.388 GHz, 7010STC-O3b-B: 28.172-29.071 GHz) with maximum linear output
power of 38dBm and saturated output power of 40dBm.
This manual provides the instructions necessary for operation and maintenance of 7010STC-O3b-A
and -B. All user interfaces present in the BUC, as well as an exact description of the diverse signals
in the connectors of the BUC, will be described in this document. This manual also explains the RS-
232 and Ethernet communication interfaces for 7010STC-O3b-A and 7010STC-O3b-B.
FEATURES 1.2
7010STC-O3b-A and 7010STC-O3b-B are comprised of IF, LO, Up-Converter, SSPA, and DC M&C
