UPLINK AMPLIFIERS

Solid State Power Amplifiers

ETL SSPA

Our solid-state power amplifiers (SSPA) offer unmatched reliability and linearity for SATCOM and military applications. Powered by advanced GaN technology, they deliver superior power density, efficiency, and up to 10x more output than GaAs HEMT, withstanding extreme conditions.

GAN TECHNOLOGY

Designed for mission-critical SATCOM applications

Equipped with SNMPv3 cybersecurity, our SSPAs ensure secure communications with authentication, encryption, and access control. Trusted by system vendors worldwide, our SSPA set the standard for high-performance, mission-critical amplification.

Flexible housing with high RF performance

Up to 10X more output power per unit compared to GaAs HEMT. Can withstand 200°C junction temperature with resistance to solar radiation.

New generation GaN Technology

Solves the primary issues with High-Power Amplifier (HPA) technology: power density and power efficiency. New generation GaN technology exceeds the capabilities of traditional GaAs amplifiers, enabling them to reach the highest available power level with the best linearity on market.

Latest generation using cyber secure SNMPv3

SNMPv3 is a protocol for managing and monitoring network devices – key security features include authentication, privacy (encryption), and access control. Prevents unauthorised access and ports authentication and encryption: SNMPv3 data cannot be read after capture. Only authorised users can access specific object identifiers.

Antenna mount

Outdoor SSPA product range

Increasingly powerful outdoor SSPAs are steadily replacing indoor TWTAs, enabling service providers to eliminate long waveguide runs by installing high-power amplifiers closer to the antenna. The solid-state amplifier’s compact size and power capacity makes it ideal for operators to free-up valuable indoor rack space. Applications include mobile broadcast, DSNG, VSAT, and fixed medium-large earth stations.

Rack mount

Indoor SSPA product range

Our indoor SSPAs are increasingly being adopted in satellite uplink systems as alternatives to traditional TWTAs due to their extremely compact, lightweight and efficient design. The SSPAs utilise either GaN (gallium nitride) or GaAS (gallium arsenide) technology.
