PTRAN-100M18G-SFB-3UVPX-MAH, Transceiver
PMI Model PTRAN-100M18G-SFB-3UVPX-MAH is a transceiver covering the frequency range of 0.1 to 18 GHz. The transceiver fits into a 3U Open VPX from factor utilizing the high speed VITA 67 RF Connector. This unit up-converts a 0.1 to 4 GHz transmit signal to the 2 to 18 GHz range. Down converts a 0.1 to 18 GHz received signal to the 0.1 to 4 GHz intermediate frequency range for analog to digital conversion. A receive filter bank incorporates a 2-way absorptive switch to select an input, along with two 6-way switches allowing one of the six filter paths to be chosen. A filter bank is used also on the transmit path, with two 6-way switches allowing one of the six filter paths to the chosen.
