S-Band Compact Outdoor SSPA
The Paradise Datacom S-Band Compact Outdoor Solid State Power Amplifier (SSPA) is built for extreme environmental conditions and high reliability operation. Along with the robust construction exists the highest power density in the industry.
This allows solid state technology to be used in applications that have long been reserved for TWTAs. At less than 40 lbs. (18 kg), and only slightly larger than a shoe box, this family of SSPAs is available in output power levels in the following range:
S-Band: 50W - 300W
C-Band: 30W - 300W
X-Band: 25W - 250W
Ku-Band: 10W - 125W
Optical Interface
Integrated Block Upconverter
Teledyne Paradise Datacom offers S-Band, C-, X-, and Ku-Band amplifiers with an integrated L-Band Block Up Converter. The L-Band units utilize Paradise Datacom’s proprietary zBUCTM technology. The addition of a zBUC converter to a Compact Outdoor SSPA typically increases the gain by 2-4 dB. The advantages of zBUC technology include:
- zBUC converters can detect and switch to an extenally supplied reference.
- Optional internal high stability (10MHz) reference.
- zBUC converters can lock to an externally supplied reference of 5, 10, 20, 25, or 50 MHz without modification.
- zBUC converters can accept a wide range of external reference power (-10 to +5 dBm)
- zBUC converters can accept FSK monitor and control signal via the IFL for complete amplifer remote control.
