Reuter RSR200B

Info

The RSR200 is a high‑performance black‑box SDR receiver designed for direct digitization of RF signals up to beyond 250 MHz. It supports data rates of up to 90 MS/s with 16‑bit I/Q (and lower rates with 24‑bit resolution) for seamless integration with PC‑based SDR applications.
Two independent ADCs allow simultaneous processing of signals from two separate RF inputs, with data output routed to one or two PCs via dual interfaces. A dedicated VHF input is also available. The ability to receive on two channels at the same time enables robust diversity reception.

Key Facts

  • Full go2monitor support via EXTIO
  • GPS‑controlled main oscillator for high long‑term stability
  • Two ADCs enabling two independent HF inputs
  • Adjustable ADC clock frequency from 70–200 MHz (default: 125 MHz)
  • Integrated antenna and preselector control directly through EXTIO
  • Noise figure < 2 dB at 100 MHz
  • Capability to control the RLA4GS directional loop antenna and the preselector RAP1
  • Rugged black steel housing
  • USB and LAN interfaces for flexible system integration

Overview

Reuter RSR200B

The RSR200 is built in a robust, anodized aluminium housing with integrated cooling fins. RF connectors use the standard BNC interface, while the VHF and GPS inputs are available via SMA. Power is supplied through a standard 9–15 V DC jack or via USB‑C Power Delivery.

For data transmission, the RSR200 provides two high‑speed interfaces—USB 3.0 and 1 Gbit SFP‑LAN—allowing connection to one or two PCs. Each interface can deliver data for two independent channels / SDR applications. With two fully independent 16‑bit ADCs, the receiver offers excellent reception performance. All RF inputs support remote powering of active antennas and remote control of RLA4, RFA2, and RAP1.

Operation is performed via an Ext‑IO.DLL in combination with compatible SDR software such as go2monitor, SDRConsole, HDSDR or SoDiRa. T Special RSR200 features—such as antenna diversity—are implemented in hardware and exposed via a dedicated user interface.
