VZX-2783C1 - Communications & Power Industries

X-Band
CPI 1.0 kW X-Band TWT Amplifier
Compact
Provides 1000 watts of power in the 8.0 to 12.75 GHz
frequency band in a compact 19-inch, rack-mount, dual
drawer configuration for wideband testing.
Efficient and Reliable
Employs a CPI dual-depressed collector helix traveling
wave tube which increases efficiency by a nominal 20%
over conventional single collector TWTs, and a power supply
designed with a minimum number of parts for
maximum uptime.
Simple to Operate
Integrated microprocessor control lets the user adjust
and monitor all operating parameters from one easy-to-read
local or remote panel, using straightforward menudriven commands.
