DRC 3500 Versatile Ka-Band Transceiver
Key Features: • Flexible Polarisation: RHCP/ LHCP and cross/co-polar • 2 GHz operation by The new DRC 3500 is a high performance Ka-Band transceiver with
switchable sub-bands • Optimised, integrated
Feed-chain for highest EIRP and G/T
unprecedented versatility. The product includes the complete antenna feed chain with polariser, a true 5 Watt BUC, a wide-band PLL LNB and an OpenBMIP Monitoring and Control facility – all in a single, IP67 rated, enclosure.
• True 5 Watt P1dB at the Feed • L-Band IFL • Wide DC supply voltage range 18 – 50 V
The unit is convection cooled (fan-less) to ensure best reliability. The DRC has the capability to operate over commercial and military Ka-Band frequencies by electronic sub-band switching. It also features electronic polarisation switching between RHCP/LHCP as well as co-polar and cross-polar modes.
• Auto-detect 10 MHz and 50 MHz TX reference • IP67 rated housing and feed
All this versatility allows the DRC to switch between any satellite without changing hardware. Standard L-Band RX-IF and TX-IFL interfaces match common VSAT modems. All production units are 100 % RF tested under environmental extremes.
• OpenBMIP Monitoring and Control - other protocols through firmware update • Fan-less design
Options: • Electronic Polarisation and band switching • High stability Rx LO with 10 MHz reference conversion • Auxiliary Power Supply Unit
