Falcon Ku-band Block Downconverter 24400

FN-D-K1L1-24400

• Description

  Falcon2 Ku-band Block downconverter, converting Ku-band to L-band.

  Flexible module configurations allow up to four Falcon² conversion modules to be housed within the GENUS chassis. Depending on your requirements these could be all upconverters, all downconverters, or a mix of both. All modules are field-serviceable and replaceable including the hot-swappable dual redundant power supplies and CPU.

  Superior RF performance and advanced cooling features, Falcon² positions itself as the preferred choice for teleports, earth stations, satellite operations, government and defence applications, telemetry, tracking, command, and high-resilience scenarios. 

  Field replaceable internal reference source and external reference inject port, enabling the user to utilise the latest referencing technologies. Falcon² has superior phase noise and enhanced spurious specifications.

  Redundancy configurations (2+1 and 1+1) are also available within the converter chassis, meaning that a separate chassis for redundancy is not required.

  Latest security software, Falcon² is equipped with SNMPv3 and HTTPS, helping to future-proof your ground segment.
