Request a quoteThe Norsat ELEMENT 4W Ku-Band MINIBUC is a compact 4 W block upconverter (BUC) for Ku-band VSAT uplinks, powered through the IF cable (IFL) at +15 to +24 V DC. Variants convert a 950-1200 to 950-1700 MHz IF input to standard, extended or other Ku sub-bands between 12.75 and 14.80 GHz. It uses a 10 MHz external reference, is rated IP67 and weighs 0.7 kg. It is sold in several variants (see the specs), so confirm the exact part number when ordering.
