MCL MT4500 Multi-Band Antenna Mounted Travelling Wave Tube Amplifier
MCL MT4500 Multi-Band Antenna Mounted Travelling Wave Tube Amplifier System provides power amplification of C-Band, Ku-Band, X-Band, Ka-Band, and V-Band signals. The rugged MT4500 is an extremely versatile platform that offers operators the ability to swap out RF modules in the field depending on frequency transmission requirements.
This TWT amplifier comes in 3 different configurations: Ka-Band 27.00 to 31.00 GHz, Tri-Band (C, X, & KU), V-Band 36.00 to 51.00 GHz in discrete bands. The 4500 series amplifiers are capable of delivering 5 To 51 GHz frequency coverage in discrete bands, and it's RF modules can be changed out in less than 10 Minutes. 1:1 redundancy configuration is also possible along with remote and hand held controller interfaces. MIL-STD-810F, Proc. 1, Cat 4, Figure 514.5C-1, 2, 3 vibration resistance, along with MIL-STD-810F, Method 516.5, Procedure VI - Bench Handling, shock absorption is also incorporated into the MT4500.
Features: Operating Temperature: -40°C to +50°C (derated 1.9°C per 1,000 ft. above sea level) , RF Output Connectors: Tri-Band RF Deck: WRD-580D28, Cover Ka-Band RF Deck: WR-28, Cover, Operating Altitude: 10,000 ft. above sea level (3,048 m) AMSL
