Product Details

Product Overview

System architects building compact satellite ground terminals or mobile communication arrays face intense integration hurdles when dealing with separate frequency conversion stages and heavy external steering processors. The SDL-256D addresses these system bottlenecks by packing a full down-converter and an advanced beam control unit directly onto a single 15mm thick modular substrate. Operating across a wide 13.75–14.5 GHz block (expandable up to 15 GHz), it achieves an impressive G/T ratio equal to or greater than 4.5 dB/K while drawing a maximum of just 25W. Supporting a fully tileable architectural structure that allows multiple tiles to splice together for immediate aperture scaling, this panel provides a dependable LEO GEO satellite reception building block designed to thrive in demanding mobile network installations.
