AtlanTecRF has added a new range of benchtop SATCOM Amplifiers to their comprehensive range of portable satellite communications test equipment. These amplifiers cover a frequency range from 10 MHz to 31 GHz and incorporate all satcom bands including L, S, C, X, Ku and Ka.
The amplifiers in this line provide an at least +20 dBm of output power with higher levels up to 10 watts. Base models have nominal gain of between 20 dB and 30 dB depending on the frequency range with options available for increased gain to 40 dB minimum. Gain control can be affected with the optional variable attenuators at input or output and these can be either manual or remote digital. Common specifications include +/-0.5 dB gain flatness, -70 dBc spurious and an operating temperature range of between -10 C and +50 C.
All models are housed in lightweight bench instrument cases that measure 260 x 110 x 360 mm and have a tilt handle.
The amplifiers are available with SMA (F) input and output connectors as standard with the exception of the Ka band uplink frequencies to 31 GHz which use 2.92 mm (F). They are operated from 80-240 V, 50-60 Hz A/C supplies.
