We design, prototype and manufacture low rate production Frequency Converter products. High rate production is outsourced to our CRM in Japan. Our products range from 1 GHz to 40 GHz in frequency. Manufactured primarily for the SATCOM market – both ground and space, we do have the capability to provide frequency converter products for the consumer mobile market – 4G and 5G.

Our primary customers are military satellite terminal integrators who are convinced to exacting standards. We meet and exceed those standards while providing a unique product to help differentiate our customers offering.
