Abstract
A system comprises a modem, configured to transmit data modulated based on an intermediate frequency within one of a C, X, or Ku band, and a single-stage block-up converter having an input electrically coupled via one inter-facility link cable to the modem, and an output electrically coupled to a high-power amplifier. The single-stage block-up-converter is configured to up-convert the intermediate frequency to a satellite communication frequency within the Ka, Q, or V band.
