R&S®SU250A/SD230A VHF/UHF Multichannel Transmitter

Features

FeaturesBenefits
Continuous operation
  • Convection cooling- Generously dimensioned heat sink
  • Gradual power degradation in case of adverse operating conditions
  • Automatic switching off at critical temperature
  • Continuous output via control of external Blower Unit R&S IZ200, e.g. for ATIS or VOLMET service
High communication link reliability
Rear heat sinkCost-effective installation in standard racks
  • L-shape plug-in slide rails are sufficient
  • No need for telescopic rails
Variety of PTT (push-to-talk) techniques
  • Via front-panel switch: unmodulated (PTT) or modulated (TONE)
  • Via microphone key
  • Via a wide control voltage range: floating via optocoupler or negative pole to ground (via optocoupler or phantom circuit)
  • Via serial interface (REM BUS)
High system flexibility
  • Interface adaptable without problems
  • Easy to test
Excellent spectral purity
  • Low-noise synthesizer
  • Careful design of power amplifier etc (minimizing non-linearity product emission)
  • Harmonics filter
  • Special models with additional VHF or UHF Lowpass Filter R&S GH200V/U to comply with German Telekom Guidelines for spurious emissions on request (if used without external filters)
  • VHF or UHF Circulator Set R&S GD200V/U (option) provided for insertion in front of harmonics filter (maximum efficiency) to improve TX intermodulation characteristics
Interference-free operation
even under co-site conditions
Future-proof and cost-effective transmitters
for multiple applications "all-in-one" Standard transmitter models
  • For standard operation or
  • For 2-, 3-, 4-carrier offset operation (with 25 kHz spacing)
  • For future 8.33 kHz mode: no need for expensive change of synthesizer; for final 8.33 kHz upgrading the optional Modulator Extender
  • R&S GM201C8 has merely to be inserted into the customized option slot of the transmitter
  • For single- and multichannel operation, thus reduced logistics effort

High-precision transmitter models for special applications
Same benefits as before
(except 8.33 kHz)
Designed as 19" 3 HU plug-in unit
  • Internally and externally loaded modules
  • Slots prepared for present or future options
  • Space for future customer-specific options
  • No motherboard
  • Swivel-type design of rear power amplifier module for ideal accessibility in the event of tests during full operation; heat sink and flexible cabling remain connected
Helpful service functions for fast status checks
Clearly arranged control and monitoring elements on front panel
