Norsat International Inc. designs, engineers and markets intelligent satellite solutions for high-speed data transmission. If you’re in the satellite business, then you already know that the Norsat high stability Ku-Band low noise block down-converters (LNBs) and in particular the HS 1000 Ku-Band PLL LNB and a 1000 HX, are the smallest external reference units on the market.
For those of us not in the know could use a bit of a tutorial. Luckily, the company will be featuring the new HS 1000 series at booth 617 at SATCON 2008 which is being held at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, in New York City, on October 15th and 16th, 2008. Company representatives will be on hand to explain the technology in depth and explain competitive advantages such as,
• Typical low noise figures of 0.8 to 0.9 dB (1000X); and of 0.7 dB to 0.9 dB (HS 1000)
• Conversion gain of 62 dB (1000X); and 60 dB (HS 1000)
• Extended temperature range of -40°C to 60°C
