Solid State Broadband High Power Amplifier

2126 – BBS2E3KUT

20 – 500 MHz / 1000 Watts

The BBS2E3KUT (SKU 2126) is suitable for multi-octave bandwidth high power CW, modulated, and pulse applications. This amplifier utilizes high power LDMOS devices that provide wide frequency response, high gain, high peak power capability, and low distortions. Exceptional performance, longterm reliability and high efficiency are achieved by employing advanced broadband RF matching networks and combining techniques, EMI/RFI filters, and all qualified components. The amplifier is constructed within one single 5RU drawer including the forced air-cooling. The system comes standard to operate from 180-260VAC single phase or optionally can be ordered with a three phase AC supply.

The amplifier includes a built-in control and monitoring system, with protection functions which preserve high availability. Remote management and diagnostics are via an embedded web server allowing network managed site status and control simply by connecting the unit’s Ethernet port to a LAN. Using a web browser and the unit’s IP address (IPV4, IPV6) allows ease of access with the benefit of multilevel security. The control system core supports hardware encryption, runs an embedded OS (Linux), has a built-in non-volatile memory for event recording, and factory setup recovery features. The extended memory option allows storage of control parameters and event logs.

Empower RF’s ISO9001 Quality Assurance Program assures consistent performance and the highest reliability.

 Solid-state linear design  Suitable for CW, AM, FM and pulse (Consult factory for other modulation types)  Compact Modular design  50 ohm input/output impedance  Built in Control, Monitoring and Protection functions  High reliability and ruggedness  Optional harmonic and spuriou s suppre ss ion via external switched filter bank (quoted sep ar ately )
