RXD612

RF Receiver Module

RXD612 is a cost-effective, phase-coherent RF receiver module ideal for over-the-air RF measurements or testing communications devices.

Built on the modular PXI platform and state-of-the-art software defined radio technology, this RF receiver module can be used for monitoring, scanning and test applications.

RXD612 has 2 independently-tunable RF input channels with 80 MHz of instantaneous bandwidth each.

Key Facts

  • 2 RF input channels with 80 MHz instantaneous bandwidth each
  • Frequency range between 1 MHz – 6 GHz
  • Superior sensitivity and high dynamic range
  • Independent and phase coherent tuning

  • RXD612 provides an aggregated bandwidth of 160 MHz for frequencies ranging from 1 MHz to 6 GHz. Each of the RF inputs has a real time bandwidth of 80 MHz and can be tuned individually anywhere between 1 MHz – 6 GHz.
  • RXD612’s superior sensitivity combined with its high dynamic range ensures interception of both very weak and strong signals side by side.

The RXD612 RF Receiver Module may be applied to test & measurement and RF monitoring applications.

Devices well suited to testing with RXD612 include:

  • Narrowband communications devices
  • Satellite payloads
  • Electronic ground support equipment (EGSE)
  • Beacons, interrogators and transponders

RXD612 is a critical component of Novator Solutions HUGIN 4000 COMINT Monitoring System. Hence, RXD612 is ideal for spectrum monitoring applications, where high sensitvity and dynamic range is required for over-the-air interception of signals.

 

RXD612 is based on the industry-standard PXI platform, and therefore may be purchased individually and added to a PXI system of your choice. RXD612 is two slots wide.

We can also supply the RXD612 with an NI PXIe-1090 Thunderboltâ„¢, 2-Slot chassis. This is ideal when using the RXD612 as a measurement or monitoring device connected to a laptop or PC.

Additional Options (please contact us for more details)

RXD612 may be reduced down to a single-slot, analogue-only RF module, for use with alternative digital back-end modules or devices.

RXD612 may be offered with a high-speed serial instrument for real-time analogue demodulation and UDP packaging for off-platform data streaming. This increases the PXI slot-width to 3.
