Giant Tortoise Multi-band Transmitter

Giant Tortoise™ multi-band stimulus transmitter is a portable, rugged, high-power transmitter system comprised of dual, independent modules giving the user freedom to transmit on any 2 CW (Continuous Wave) frequency bands simultaneously without the need for expensive and bulky additional transmitters. Giant Tortoise features dynamically controlled Class AB amplifiers for the cleanest signal output of up to 80 watts with VSWR protection. Giant Tortoise can support C-band, CBRS, 3.5 GHz and most other 3G/4G/5G (non-mm wave frequencies) RF spectrum.

Giant Tortoise features built-in thermal overheat protection circuitry with quad cooling fans to ensure against overheating during operation. Remote adjustments include power level, channel or frequency assignment and transmit On/Off via USB connected to any PC.

What is the maximum power output from Giant Tortoise?

Tortoise class AB amplifiers support up to 80 Watts of output power depending upon single, dual or wideband configurations.

Why won’t my Tortoise turn on when I hook it up to a gas portable generator?

Certain model generators output an impure noise spike in the AC output. This anomaly has been traced to ignition noise riding on top of the sine waveform. So while this output is fine for most devices requiring AC power, the Tortoise will not turn on because it requires pure regulated AC power. Several model Honda generators have been tested and approved for this application, and also this problem can be easily remedied by simply using an inexpensive AC surge suppressor found in any convenience or hardware store.

Can Giant Tortoise transmit from 2 modules at the same time?

Yes. In addition, two CW frequencies may also be transmitted simultaneously all from one transmitter housing.

Can Giant Tortoise be powered from a DC source?

No. All Giant Tortoises are AC (110V or 220V) only.

Can Giant Tortoise be controlled remotely?

Giant Tortoise supports connection via USB and can be controlled remotely when connected to any Windows PC.

Can Giant Tortoise output modulated signals?

Giant Tortoise is a CW (Continuous Wave) test transmitter. It does not currently support modulation but contact sales@bvsystems.com or talk to a BVS sales engineer for custom configurations.
