K - Band Frequency Divider
The CLT-KA06A-FD is a connectorised K-Band frequency divider designed for satellite payload applications requiring precise local oscillator generation and frequency synthesis. Operating across the 24.35–24.85 GHz uplink window, it delivers a stable divided output in the 12.175–12.425 GHz range — directly compatible with Ku-Band downlink chains in GEO, MEO and LEO satellite architectures.
