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 signal generators, spectrum analyzers, or VNA's to millimeter-wave and TeraHertz frequencies. Our coverage spans range from 75 GHz to 670 GHz, in both standard and customizable bands. We empower you to extend VNA capabilities without direct LO/IF access, allowing the use of older instruments. Achieve synchronous frequency and swept operation, all harmoniously synchronized with your VNA. Single Sideband (SSB) versions eliminate image responses, to avoid interfering signals. Precision-machined screened enclosures ensure reliability.
