PTRAN-100M18G-SDLVA-SFB-3UVPX-10HP-MAH-MX Active

Transceiver


Quantic PMI Model No. PTRAN-100M18G-SDLVA-SFB-3UVPX-10HP-MAH-MX is a transceiver that covers the frequency range of 100 MHz to 18.0 GHz and fits into a 3U open VPX form factor utilizing the high-speed VITA 67 RF connector. This unit up-converts a 100 MHz to 4.0 GHz transmit signal to the 2.0 to 18.0 GHz range and down-converts a 100 MHz to 18.0 GHz received signal to the 100 MHz to 4.0 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 six filter paths to be chosen. A filter bank is also used on the transmit path, with two 6-way switches allowing one of six filter paths to be chosen. The unit is designed to attach to an FPGA controller card allowing for a total solution in a 10 HP (2”) form factor.
