HIGH-PERFORMANCE MICROWAVE CONVERTERS
Standard microwave converter products offer RF performance up to
40 GHz with a 2 GHz IBW. A modular design approach enables rapid
customization and is optimized for demanding SIGINT/ELINT applications.
IF-TO-IF CONVERTERS
Mercury IF-to-IF converter products have been created to solve the
limitation caused by fixed, static IFs for products including signal
recorders, digitizers, signal analyzers, or waveform generators.
