Overview
The SSPB-2100K series are hub-mount up-converter transmitters, operating in the Ku-Band. The SSPB-2100K is an integrated unit, complete with power supply, phase-locked oscillator, mixer, filter and cooling mechanism. Intended for outdoor operation, the SSPB-2100K provides the utmost in convenience and efficiency. Other SSPB's are also available for higher powers or for operation at other up-link frequencies.
The design of these units is based on ADVANTECH AMT industry proven reliable solid-state high power amplifiers. The use of high efficiency power supply and conservative thermal designs contribute to the trouble-free operation of the amplifier. Built-in microprocessor controller provides the capability for serial port interfaces (RS232/485) for remote monitoring and control.

Application
The SSPB-2100K series convert an L-Band signal to the Ku-band frequency (see table A). Designed for Ku-Band satellite up-link applications, the SSPB K series are available in output power from 1W to 250W. The SSPB-2100K series are fully integrated units from 20W to 50W output power designed for mounting outdoors, near the hub of an antenna.
