Description
Miteq DN8000/5942 C-Band Downconverter 4198.6/71 MHz RF Satcom 115VAC Rackmount
C-Band RF downconverter that converts satellite receive signals from 4198.6 MHz to a 71 MHz intermediate frequency output. Designed for satellite ground station applications requiring phase-locked frequency conversion with status monitoring.
Specifications & What's Included
- Input Frequency: 4198.6 MHz (C-Band RF)
- Output Frequency: 71.0 MHz (IF)
- Power Requirements: 115 VAC, 1.0A fuse
- Rackmount form factor with SMA RF and IF connectors
- Phase-locked local oscillator with out-of-lock and APC indicators
- Front panel test points and frequency/power monitoring
- Multi-pin circular connector for summary alarm output
Applications
C-Band downconverters are core components in satellite receive ground stations, converting high-frequency RF signals to lower IF frequencies for further signal processing and demodulation. This unit was used in active satcom environments where it performed frequency translation for C-Band satellite reception. Compatible with standard rack-mounted satcom receiver chains requiring 71 MHz intermediate frequency outputs.
This Miteq DN8000/5942 C-Band Downconverter has been inspected and is in good used condition. It was pulled from a working satellite communications environment where it was actively in use and functional. The chassis shows typical light wear consistent with rack-mounted equipment — minor surface scuffs on the top and side panels. The front panel indicators, test points, and push-on/off power button are intact and show no damage. The rear SMA connectors (J1 input and J2 output) and the J3 Summary Alarm multi-pin circular connector are present and in good shape. The IEC power inlet and heat sink area look clean with no notable damage. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
