Low Noise Block Downconvertors
As one of the early pioneers in the development of LNBs (satellite receivers), Norsat has long established a reputation for providing a full range of high quality, innovative LNB products. These LNBs convert and amplify the C-band, Ku-band or Ka-band signal to a lower Intermediate Frequency (IF) of L-band.
At Norsat we work with you to recommend products best suited for your application. We can provide specification sheets to assist in your decision and can offer custom LNB modifications if your project requires, for example, a unique frequency or connector. Price quotations are available on a variety of noise figures and L.O. stability.
