Description

AKON’s A60-ML006 is a medium-gain downconverter which accepts inputs in the 6.0 to 18.0 GHz band, incorporates a 3-channel preselector filter, each channel being 4 GHz wide, and individually down converts those channels to a 2.0 to 6.0 GHz IF output. Conversion gain is roughly 12 dB, and dynamic range is 48 dB. 0 dB SNR threshold is -68 dBm. Deselected channel isolation is over 60 dB and switching time is less than 200 ns typical.
