Abstract
We present an ultrastable microwave system devoted to synthesizing photonic microwave signals in the RF, L-, S-, and X-bands. The rack-mounted system shows fractional stability below 10 -14 level from 100 ms up to 10 hours of operation on a 10 GHz signal, also allowing synchronization with optical clocks.
