Eclipse Outdoor Units

The Eclipse platform provides a choice of outdoor units (ODUs) with these key features:

• 5 to 38 GHz frequency coverage, including all common (and many uncommon) ITU-R/CEPT channel arrangements
• Common Eclipse E300 ODU IF cable interface
• Capacity-independent, providing payload transparent operation
• Software-configurable power output, with up to 30 dB of manual attenuation control, automatic transmitter power control (ATPC) and direct power measurement included as standard
• Accurate receive signal level (RSL) indication up to ±2dB
• One common mechanical design
• Direct antenna mount for all frequencies to eliminate waveguide connection losses
• Complete field-replaceable unit to speed maintenance and repair
