About
The IQ Spacecom XLink-S is an advanced SDR transceiver for S-Band satellite communication in LEO. Transmits in 2.200-2.290 GHz and receives in 2.025-2.110 GHz with very high downlink data rates up to 200 Mbps (56 MSymbols/s). Modulation options include BPSK, QPSK, OQPSK, GMSK, 8PSK, and 16APSK for transmit, and BPSK with BCH coding for receive. Optional dual Tx channels for power increase (combined +33 dBm) or redundancy. Doppler compensation to +/-200 kHz. Mass 200g, 90x65x25.3mm, DC 6-18V or 28V, less than 16W for dual Tx+Rx. GbE interface. CCSDS and DVB-S2 compliant, TRL 9.
