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

  • L-band to Ka-band block upconverter, with multiplexed 10 MHz and 50 MHz reference
  • Multiband BUC: select from multiple factory-set frequency bands within the Ka-band frequency range
  • Simultaneous multiple BUC: transmit two channels at once using factory set frequency bands (contact CPI for specifications and dimensions)
  • Remote control panel
  • Serial interface
  • Legacy redundant switch controller
