Front Options
VHF/UHF Guard Receiver
R&S® ET402
  • Complete independent dual receiver
  • Monitoring of the international distress frequencies in the VHF (121.5 MHz) or UHF range (243 MHz)
  • VHF/UHF switchover
    - manual by front panel switch or
    - automatic depending on the main receiver frequency range
  • Antenna connection
    - via main receiver or
    - via separate Guard RX Antenna Interface R&S® GI417U (option)
  • Special transceiver models (e.g. .27 + .28) allow two R&S® ET402 to be inserted
    in parallel for simultaneous monitoring of the VHF and UHF distress frequencies
  • Sensitivity: =2.5 µV (VHF)/=3 µV (UHF) (m = 0.3; fm = 1 kHz; S + N / N = 10 dB, weighted to ITU-T)
  • Image rejection =80 dB
  • Design 1/16 19" front modules
VHF/UHF Preselector
R&S® FT402
  • Automatically tuned preselector filter, interfaced in front of the receiver RF unit
  • For improvement of reception under critical collocation conditions: this option protects
    especially against strong far-off transmit frequencies. R&S® FT402 does not
    replace high-selectivity filters such as R&S® FD221 for nearby-interference suppression
  • Selectivity: bandwidth =13 (25)% VHF/=16 (29)% UHF at 10 (15) dB

  • Design 1/16 19" front modules
VHF/UHF TX/RX Filter
R&S® FT403TR
  • Combined pre/postselector filters for receive and transmit mode
  • For improvement of reception quality (desensitization, IF and image rejection) under critical co-site conditions
  • For improvement of transmission quality (sideband noise)
  • For reduction of necessary TX-to-RX antenna decoupling for interference-free operation
VHF TX/RX Filter
R&S® FU403TR
  • For fixed-channel or FH mode
