The Norsat ELEMENT 3W Ku-Band MINIBUC is a compact 3 W block upconverter (BUC) for Ku-band VSAT uplinks. It converts a 950-1700 or 950-1450 MHz IF input to 13.75-14.50 GHz (extended) or 14.00-14.50 GHz (standard), locks to a 10 MHz external reference and is rated IP67. It weighs 0.7 kg. It is sold in several variants (see the specs), so confirm the exact part number when ordering.
