Test Loop Translator – High-Performance Rack Systems | ETL Systems

The **Test Loop Translators (TLT)** from **ETL Systems** are designed for **satcom and RF testing** environments. These rack-mounted units enable **frequency translation from one satellite band to another**, simulating uplink and downlink paths without the need for an actual satellite segment. They provide a reliable and flexible solution for satellite communication laboratories and test facilities.

Advantages

• Accurate simulation of RF links without satellite usage.
• Wide frequency coverage across L, S, C, X, Ku, and Ka bands.
• High reliability and stability for demanding test campaigns.
• Flexible configurations with multiple conversion options.
• Easy integration into 19’’ rack-based test environments.

Main Features

• Frequency coverage: L- to Ka-Band.
• Both uplink and downlink conversion available.
• Adjustable gain for optimum adaptation.
• Local and remote control options (Ethernet, SNMP, RS232/485).
• Compact and robust 19’’ rack-mount design.

Typical Applications

• RF and satcom test laboratories.
• Earth station validation without live satellite links.
• Research and development centers for satellite technologies.
• Network simulation and system interoperability testing.

Additional Information

ETL Systems’ TLT units are available in multiple versions depending on the band and output power. As a specialized distributor, **EMCO Elektronik** supports its German customers with expert consultation, integration services, and localized technical support.
