TL12UO - Communications & Power Industries

Ku-Band
1.25 kW SuperLinear® Outdoor TWT Amplifier
Built for Outdoor Applications
Provides up to 540 watts of linear power (with linearizer) in
a rugged and compact weatherproof package, digital ready,
for satellite or troposcatter uplinks in the 13.75 to 14.50,
12.75 to 14.50, or 13.75 to 14.80 GHz frequency band. Ideal
for transportable or fixed earth station applications.
Cost Effective and Efficient
CPI SuperLinear® TWTAs are among the most power
efficient in the industry. This amplifier is optimized for
maximum efficiency at linear output operating levels.
Reliable
Designed and built to survive in extremely adverse
environmental conditions and features increased cooling
margin for longer life. CAN-Bus architecture improves
reliability and noise immunity. Optional LifeExtender™
significantly increases TWT lifetime.
Simple to Operate
User-friendly microprocessor-controlled logic with
integrated Ethernet computer interface. Digital metering,
pin diode attenuation and optional integrated linearizer for
improved intermodulation performance. Optional SNMP
facilitates high level M&C integration.
Easy to Maintain
