ALX40

Amkom's X-band 7.9 -8.4 GHz BUCs are the next generation of the world’s most compact and efficient feed-horn & boom-arm mountable BUCs in the industry. They come with the following available output powers: 20W 30W and 40W . We’ve chosen the best of both worlds as we implemented the most mature, proven efficient and reliable GaAs + GaN High Power Amplifiers with added internal overdrive protection. We take MTBF seriously and to the next level of at least 15 years during normal operation. We’ve taken absolutely no compromises during each of the design stages. Each unit is designed, and tested to comply with the WGS, MIL-STD-188-164, and RTCA/DO-160G. It is vigorously tested at our California facility according to our ATP (Acceptance Testing Procedure).
