SDM-300A Satellite Modem
C.2.11
Transmit IF Output Switch
When set to Off, no signal present at the output is greater than -60 dBm, measured in a
3 kHz bandwidth from 0 to 500 MHz.
C.2.12
Transmit IF Power
The TX IF power is operator selectable from -5 to -30 dBm, in 0.1 dB steps, with an
accuracy of ± 0.5 dB. The maximum drift due to temperature change over the specified
range is ± 0.5 dB.
As an option the output can be selectable from +5 to -20 dBm, in 0.1 dB steps, with an
accuracy of ± 0.5 dB. The maximum drift due to temperature change over the specified
range is ± 0.5 dB.
C.2.13
Modulator Power Offset
An offset to the displayed IF output power may be entered from -99.0 to +99.0 dB, in
0.1 dB steps.
C.2.14
Modulated IF Output Shape
The modem meets the following transmit output spectral mask specifications. The desired
mask is selectable from the front panel or remotely.

Spurious Emissions
Spurious emissions are measured relative to the power of the modulated carrier. The
measurement is done with the carrier on in continuous mode and modulated by the
correct data/clock signal. Spurious emissions measured in a 3 kHz bandwidth at the
transmit IF output are:
