Terrasat IBUC G C-Band 200W GaN BUC

200W GaN Intelligent C-Band Block Upconverter for High-Efficiency Multi-Carrier Uplinks

The Terrasat IBUC-G C-Band 200W is a high-efficiency GaN-based intelligent block upconverter (BUC) engineered for demanding multi-carrier satellite uplink applications. Utilizing advanced Gallium Nitride (GaN) amplifier technology, the IBUC-G delivers high linear output power with improved efficiency and reduced power consumption compared to traditional technologies.

Designed for broadband, maritime, broadcast, teleport, and defense SATCOM systems, the 200W IBUC-G supports full C-band coverage and offers flexible configuration options including spectral sense, 10 MHz reference stability, and Cyber Hardened monitoring.

Esatcom Inc. supplies factory-configured IBUC-G units tailored to your project requirements.

Why Choose GaN Technology?

Compared to earlier amplifier technologies:

Higher power efficiency
