50W Dual Ku-Band BUC

The letter D stands for “DUAL” series, which covers both Low Ku-Band 12.75 – 13.25GHz and
Ext. Ku-band 13.75 – 14.5GHz Frequencies and are the first of its kind. Weighing only 3.5lbs
(1.6kg) and handling output power of 50W (min) at the Ku-Band frequencies. Featuring the
Dual selectable L.O.s 11.80GHz or 12.80GHz selected via M&C interface. We’ve picked the best
of both worlds as we implemented the most mature, proven efficient and reliable GaAs + GaN
High Power Amplifiers with internal overdrive protection and precise linearization technique.
We’ve chosen an absolute and “No Corner Cutting” concept in our design. Its weatherproof
and robust Hyper-Light package is constructed with the most advanced mechanical precision
engineering in mind. We’ve taken absolutely no compromises during each of the design stages
using only the toughest aerospace grade aluminum based metal with the most efficient heat
disposal properties. Each unit is vigorously tested at our California facility according to our ATP
(acceptance testing procedure).
