A double balanced mixer, the internal LO with excellent phase noise, combined with a passive X4 multiplier ensuring extremely low harmonics/spurs as well as IF and RF filters provide the box with superior performances across the broad 18 - 50 GHz range which covers most global mmW 5G bands. This box can be employed as up converter, down converter or both. Via a provided LO control software, engineers can easily choose the LO frequensies with pre-optimized LO power thru a laptop to fulfil their frequency converting tasks.
