VKQ2488 - Communications & Power Industries

HIGH POWER mmW AMPLIFIER
35 GHz 1,000 Watts CW Amplifier
Model VKQ2488
Model VKQ2488 is an air cooled continuous
wave (CW) Extended Interaction Klystron Amplifier (EIK) used for communication applications.
Frequencies are available from 34 GHz to
36 GHz producing up to 1,000 Watts of CW
power with a -1dB bandwidth of 500 MHz. This
high gain vacuum electron device (VED) is remarkably compact, has long life and highly stable output.
The VKQ2488 series of EIKs may be integrated
with the CPI VPW2827 series power conditioner
resulting in a compact self-contained and highly
reliable High Power Amplifier (HPA) transmitter
subsystem.
