Media Advisory: CPI Introduces 20 W Ku-band miniBUC

COMMUNICATIONS & POWER INDUSTRIES INTRODUCES MORE POWER, MORE FEATURES
FOR C-BAND MINIBUC PRODUCT LINE
Washington, DC – March 16, 2015 –Communications & Power Industries LLC (CPI) has
introduced a new 20 W C-band block upconverter (BUC) to the extensive line of solid state
miniBUCs offered by its Satcom Products group. The new 20 W miniBUC, with the same
interface and compact dimensions as the existing 10 W miniBUC, allows customers to easily
upgrade satellite communications terminals for higher data rate transmission. Both of these
amplifiers include optional Ethernet/LAN interface, user selectable standard and extended C
band operation and CE certification to meet European requirements.
“With robust thermal design resulting in their high reliability, CPI miniBUCs are ideal for
maritime, satcom-on-the-move, and other harsh-climate applications,” said Colin Eastment,
vice president of business development for CPI’s Satcom Division.
CPI is displaying a number of GaAs and GaN BUCs at the Satellite 2015 Conference & Exhibition.
