1.2.1 Configurations
The CST-5000 can be ordered with various configurations, including:
• Output power levels.
• Input power (AC/DC).
• Step sizes. For example, 125 kHz step size. The 125 kHz step size option allows
the transmit and receive frequencies to be adjusted within 125 kHz. The higher
resolution step size of 125 kHz requires replacing the synthesizer modules and
upgrading the software on the M&C board.
• LNA gain.
• Redundant LNA mounting plates.
• Custom logos.
• Wider bandwidths. The 140 MHz IF option enables the user to double the
available bandwidth. Specifically, instead of the standard 70 MHz, ± 18 MHz,
this option allows 140 MHz, ± 36 MHz. For more information, refer to
Appendix A.
• Multi-carrier system. The multi-carrier option allows external separation of the
up converter and SSPA for possible multiple carrier inputs. For more
information, refer to Appendix A.
