Customer Comments:

Welcome to Adobe GoLive 6

"I must be a happy customer as I have brought Quintech into the cruise industry several years ago -- and your RF matrices and other RF products are now standard throughout fleets from Royal Caribbean Cruise Line to Celebrity Cruises. The Royal Caribbean Cruise Line's fleet of 16 ships. All use only Quintech RF Matrix systems or Quintech RF Splitters for their satellite systems. Celebrity Cruise Line's fleet of 9 ships also uses only Quintech RF splitters or Quintech RF Matrix systems for their satellite systems."

The PDL 140D is an highly stable frequency downconverter that is capable of translating any L-Band channel to digital 140 MHz IF signals. Based on Quintech's popular fixed channel converters, it features highly improved phase noise and stability performance that exceeds the IESS 308/309 standard and is suitable for all current high speed data transmission rates and advanced digital modulation schemes.

Features & Benefits

  • Very low phase noise characteristics (see phase noise specifications at left), maintaining a cleaner signal
  • Ideal solution for test loop translator applications
  • Convenient, well organized rackmount configuration
