< 0.24
0
rms double sided, 100 Hz to 1MHz (minimum of 22 dB better overall than
the INTELSAT IESS 308/309 requirement)

0 to -20 dBm, 0.1 dB steps - manual mode. Refer to AUPC section.
Accuracy
±0.5 dB over frequency and temperature
Output impedance
50 and 75
Ω, front panel selectable

O/P connector
BNC female
Clocking options
• Internal,
±1ppm
•
External, locking over a ±100 ppm range
•
Loop timing (Rx satellite clock) - supports asymmetric operation - Rx and
Tx data rates do not need to be identical
External TX Carrier Off
By TTL 'low' signal or external contact closure - hardware function automatically
