The downconverter was used for long runs of cable typical use case was a high
rise with data center in basement As I recall it converted the signal to a
high level baseband and amplified that whic was good for a thousand feet or so
of cable

I have an XL-DC and it has an internal GPS receiver in it. It supplies and
monitors 5 volts to a BNC antenna jack for an external amplified GPS
antenna. I don't know what the internal GPS engine is but doubt if it is
anything special.
The manual describes the down converter system as an option.

Boy I ran out to mr google and did a search and now I am wondering if some
versions of the xl-dc just used a plain old GPS antenna. It sure looks like
that could be the case. The manual does say down converter. Maybe it
changed over time.
