Newtec AZ730 IF to L-Band Up & Down converter (USED)

The AZ730 is a high performance Up & Down frequency converter designed for a wide range of broadcast, telco and IP satellite applications. In its default configuration, the AZ730 upconverts IF signals (70 or 140 MHz) to L-band (950–1750 MHz) and simultaneously downconverts L-band signals (950–2150 MHz) to IF. Optionally, the AZ-730 can upconvert IF signals to C, Ku or DBS-band. The Newtec Azimuth Series AZ730 offers some advanced and unique features such as a calibrated high linearity over the entire bandwidth combined with a very high frequency stability. These features make the AZ-730 the perfect solution for a wide range of transmissions ranging from very small carriers to full transponder applications. The IF frequency is switchable from 70 MHz to 140 MHz and the L-band frequency is adjustable in steps of 48 Hz.  The high output frequency stability is provided by an internal 10 MHz reference clock. For applications requiring a very high frequency stability such as very low data rate carriers, an optional reference clock of 0,01ppm can be ordered separately.  A 24V DC power supply and a reference frequency on the L-band output are also available as options, providing a compact and cost effective solution when the AZ 730 is used in combination with an outdoor RF upconverter and/or amplifier. Optionally, an LNB power supply, a frequency band selection signal and a 10MHz reference frequency can be delivered to an LNB via the L-band input.  The AZ730 is easy to operate and monitor. All control and monitoring parameters are available locally on the front panel and remotely through a web interface. It is also possible to control or monitor the AZ730 via RMCP or SNMP.
