MODEL 2016-8085 Downconverter

1.0 General

1.1 Equipment Description

The 2016-8085 Downconverter converts 8.0 to 8.5 GHz to 70 ± 18 MHz in 125 kHz steps (1 kHz steps, option

X1006) with low group delay and flat frequency response. Synthesized local oscillators (LO) provide low phase

noise and ±0.01 ppm stability frequency selection. Multi-function push button switches select the RF

frequency, gain, and other parameters. Front panel LEDs provide indication of DC power (green), PLL alarm

(red), and remote operation (yellow). Gain is adjustable manually over a +30 to +50 dB range as adjusted by

the front panel multi-function push-button switches. Remote operation allows selection of frequency and gain.

Parameter selection and frequency and gain settings appear on the LCD display. Connectors are BNC (female)

for IF output and the 10MHz reference input and output, and Type N (female) for the RF input. External 10

MHz is standard. A 10 MHz output connector contains either the internal or external 10 MHz reference signal.

It is powered by a 100-240 ±10% VAC power supply, and in a 1 3/4” X 19“ X 16” rack mount chassis.

1.4 Environmental Use Information

A.Rack-Mounting - To mount this equipment in a rack, please refer to the installation instructions

located in the user manual furnished by the manufacturer of your equipment rack.

B. Mechanical loading - Mounting of equipment in a rack should be such that a hazardous condition

does not exist due to uneven weight distribution.

C.Elevated operating ambient temperature - If installed in a closed or multiunit rack assembly,

the operating ambient temperature of the rack may be greater than room ambient temperature.

Therefore, consideration should be given to Tmra (Maximum Recommended Ambient Temperature).

D. Reduced air flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow

required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. Additional space between units

may be required.

E. Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply

circuit and the effect that overloading of circuits could have on over current protection and supply wiring.

Appropriate consideration of equipment name plate rating should be used, when addressing this concern.

F. Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular

attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connection to the Branch

(use of power strips).

G. Top Cover - There are no serviceable parts inside the product so, the Top Cover should not be removed.

If the Top Cover is removed the ground strap and associated screw MUST BE REINSTALLED

prior to Top Cover screw replacement. FAILURE TO DO this may cause INGRESS and/or EGRESS

emission problems.
