SMW Ku System 10.70-12.75 GHz Dual

SMW Ku System 10.70 – 12.75 GHz Dual PLL System

The SMW Ku System 10.70–12.75 GHz Dual is a professional dual-output Ku-band LNA + BDC system for simultaneous low- and high-band reception. It features dual block-downconverters with excellent phase noise, high dynamic range, and auto-switching between external and internal 10 MHz references. RS-485 (Modbus RTU) monitoring, alarm output, and low-loss isolator options make it ideal for broadcast and gateway uplinks requiring precision, redundancy, and wide temperature tolerance.
