CPI Satcom B5KO Outdoor 160W GaNLink Ka-Band SSPA
Saturated power of 160 watts across the standard 27.5 to 30 GHz frequency band
B5KO GaNLink 160W Ka-Band SSPA/BUC
CPI Satcom B5KO GaNLink 160W Outdoor Ka-Band SSPA/BUC offers peak saturated power of 160 W typical (52.0 dBm) from 27.5 to 30.0 GHz, 128 W (51.1 dBm) min. from 30 to 31 GHz. Combined with plenty of thermal margin, results in a GaN SSPA/BUC that is rock-solid, highly efficient and easy to maintain. Perfect for LEO/MEO/GEO systems, Satcom on the Move, VSATs, and antenna-mount applications.
Easy to Operate and Maintain
- User-friendly microprocessor-controlled logic with Ethernet computer interface (serial interface optional). Also contains digitally controlled attenuator. Redundant systems available. SNMP enabled (v1, v2, or v3).
High Linearity
- Excellent AM/PM, phase noise and spectral regrowth performance.
Features
- EMC Directive 2014/30/EU
- Harmonic Standard EN-61000-3-2
- Ethernet interface with integral web server for easy monitoring and control
- SNMP interface (v1, v2, v3) • Redundant switch controller (SIM)
Options
