BUC

A Block Up Converter (BUC) is a device used in satellite communication to convert the frequency of outbound signals. It takes intermediate frequency signals from the indoor satellite modem and translates them to higher frequency bands for transmission to the satellite. The BUC amplifies and shifts the signal to the uplink frequency. This component is crucial for efficient satellite communication, providing the necessary power and frequency conversion for transmitting signals from ground stations to satellites in orbit. BUCs are employed in various satellite communication applications, including broadcasting, telecommunication, and broadband internet services.
