Novella Satcoms Block Upconverter typically used for frequency translation from (to) L-band to (from) SHF (C, X, Ku, DBS and Ka bands).

The single LO used in this translation has fixed frequency and has usually a frequency value below the SHF output (input) band. In some cases the LO frequency value may be above the SHF output (input) band.

Novella’s Block Converters may be built inside the frequency converters, or located outside the main L-band converter chassis.

In this case the L-band interconnect cable will carry L-band and, in many models 10MHz reference, alarm signaling and DC power provided by the converter chassis.

External Block Converters may be assembled in their own 1U 19″ chassis, with or without independent PSU and/or 10MHz reference.

Or they may be assembled inside polycarbonate IP65 boxes, aluminium lightweight boxes to IP65 rating, or aluminium heavy duty ruggedised military type boxes to IP67.

The size of these boxes is typically 220x145x55mm but smaller sizes are possible by further mechanical integration of components.

The more standard sizes (around 220x145x55mm) are usually set by mechanical constraints and/or availability of third party standard size polycarbonate and aluminium boxes.
