The DT-4500 series are 1RU down converters that translate C-band (DT-4503 and variants) or Ku-band (DT-4510 to DT-4513 and variants) signals to a 70/140 MHz-band IF. Each unit has 45 dB gain and at least +20 dBm output at 1 dB compression, and uses Comtech's Daisy Chain integrated redundancy switching. Comtech lists them for SCPC, DAMA and TDMA networks and for full-transponder TV.
