ADMV1011 upconversion RF frequency range

Question

Hi, 
 can the ADMV1011 be used as upper sideband (USB) upconversion also in the 17-20GHz region? 
 Because from datasheet (page 3) it seems that could work only in lowerside band mode for those frequencies. 
 
 For example IF = 2GHz, LO = 8GHz, RF = 18GHz. 
 
 Also, how about LO frequency below 8GHz, for example 7GHz? (e.g. IF = 3.7GHz, LO = 7GHz, RF = 17.7GHz) 
 
 Thank you 
 Best regards 
 -Federico

Hi Federico, 
 It should be ok as long as the RF, IF and LO are within its specified bandwidth. Note, the part's performance is specified with the Mini-Circuits QCN-45+ power splitter/combiner. 
 
 Thanks,
