Actox ABE8KXH / ABE8KXHF

Actox ABE8KXH / ABE8KXHF – 8W Extended 13.75–14.5 GHz Ku-Band BUC 

This smallest and lightest 8W L-To Ku-Band Block Up Converter is based on GaN technology. Double L.O. and field-exchangeable connectors make the unit universal for any Ku-Band application. Incomparable low power consumption allows the BUC to be powered by iDirect and similar modems. Internal 10MHz reference option enables using the BUC with the modems without 10MHz reference
