upconverter
Signal frequency shifter
An upconverter is a device that shifts a signal to a higher frequency.
In electronics and telecommunications, upconverters take input signals and output them at higher frequencies for transmission or processing.
The term appears in audio equipment, satellite communications, and radio systems: The upconverter boosts the signal before it reaches the antenna.
