CXS-2000 Image

The CXS-2000 from L3Harris Technologies is a Satellite Transponder with a transmitter operating frequency range of 2200-2300 MHz and a receiver operating frequency range of 1760-2120 MHz. It has a noise figure value of 3.5 dB (SGLS) and 5 dB (3RD RX input) with a dynamic range of -110 dBm (SGLS), -113 dBm (USB), and -82 dBm (3RD RX input). The transponder requires an input voltage of 28-70 V and has a power consumption of 12-16 W at the receiver end and 46-56 W at the transmitter end. The transponder supports SGLS and USB receive modes and modulation formats such as PM, AM, FSK, and BPSK. The CXS-2000 has transmitter data rates of 8 Msps (Direct Carrier), 128 kbps (Subcarrier) and receiver data rates of 1-2 kbps (SGLS), 1.2-4 kb (USB), 32-64 kbps (3RD RX INPUT. It has a radiation tolerance of up to 100 krad and is ideal for providing TT&C between U.S. Air Force satellite control facilities and military satellites.
