    High-Power Outdoor C-, X- and Ku-Band Power Amplifiers

    Amplifiers

    Overview
    Comtech EF Datas (CEFD) series of High-Power Outdoor (HPOD) C-, X-, and Ku-Band Solid-State Power Amplifiers (SSPAs) provide a
    cost-effective option to TWT amplifiers in satellite communications terminals. The HPOD delivers its rated power, guaranteed at the 1 dB
    compression point to the transmit waveguide flange.

    Field Replaceable Power Supply


    Recognizing that the MTBF limiting factor for almost all electronic equipment is the power supply, the HPOD provides for easy field
    replacement. Simply disconnect the AC mains, release the captive fasteners, and remove the supply from the SSPA module.

    The Solid-State Advantage


    Each HPOD is constructed with highly reliable GaAs FETs. High linearity SSPA technology enables achieving intermodulation
    specifications using lower power amplifiers. The HPOD SSPA also provides an MTBF that is 4 to 5 times greater than legacy TWT
    MTBFs.

    Functional Description
    An HPOD consists of an SSPA module with the Monitor/Control Processor (MCP), a field replaceable power supply, and a field
    replaceable fan assembly. The amplifier features a Comtech EF Data low-loss combining technique and MCP-based temperature versus
    gain compensation.

    Redundant Systems
    The HPOD amplifiers were designed from the start to provide cost-effective 1:1 or 1:2 systems. Redundant system control is built into the
    unit, eliminating an external controller with its associated cabling. This provides a cost benefit to our customers both at initial purchase
    and at installation.

    Higher Power Through Phase Combining


    Comtech EF Datas phase-combined systems allow the outputs of two amplifiers to be summed together. A normal 1:1 system using
    300 W amplifiers provides 300 W of output power (the offline units capabilities are unusable). The same amplifiers in a 1+1 phasecombined system will provide 600 W of output power in normal operation, and a soft failure state of 300 W. If no degradation on failure
    can be accommodated, a third amplifier can be added to form a 1:2 phase-combined system.

    Optional Smart BUC Functionality


    Our unique approach to L-Band/RF frequency conversions eliminates DC and 10 MHz from the input coax. This greatly simplifies
    redundant and multi-carrier operation. It offers full 13.75 to 14.5 GHz Ku-Band coverage and supports industry standard FSK
    modem/BUC communications. The optional BUC can lock to an external or internal reference oscillator.

    Feature Packed
    The HPOD SSPAs come equipped with useful features that other manufacturers offer as options. Included in each units base price are
    temperature compensation, sample ports, power monitor, field-replaceable power factor corrected supply, and full remote monitor and
    control capabilities.
