​220-260 GHz Down Converters for 5G/6G Applications

Designed for 5G/6G broadband and antenna test range applications, these converters offer state-of-the-art noise figures that set new benchmarks in performance. Extend the capabilities of receivers, spectrum analyzers, or VNA's to millimeter-wave and TeraHertz frequencies. Coverage form the range 50 GHz to 670 GHz, in both standard and customizable waveguide bands. Internal local oscillators (optional) allow frequency extension without direct LO/IF access, facilitating the use of older instruments. Frequency synchronization may be achieved with the 10 MHz reference. Single Sideband (SSB) versions (option) eliminate image responses, to avoid interfering signals. Precision-machined screened enclosures offer passive heat sinking and ensures reliability.
