Radyne RCU-101 1:1 redundancy switchover unit protecting Radyne/Comstream frequency converters.

The Radyne RCU-101 is a 1:1 redundancy switchover unit designed to protect Radyne and Comstream frequency converters (upconverters and downconverters) in a satellite earth station RF chain, automatically switching from a failed primary unit to a standby backup to maintain link continuity. It monitors the health of the online converter and triggers a fast changeover on fault detection, with manual override available for planned maintenance, and is built for rack mounting alongside the converter pair it protects. Redundancy switches of this type are a standard part of any mission-critical teleport, VSAT hub or broadcast uplink installation, where an unprotected single point of failure in the RF chain is not acceptable. The RCU-101 was a common companion unit across Radyne and Comstream converter deployments. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) supplies tested Radyne RCU-101 switchover units. Contact us to confirm stock and compatibility with your converter pair.
