Global Applications
Provides 1250 watts of peak power (540 watts
linear) in a compact nine rack-unit package,
digital ready, for wideband, single- and
multi-carrier satellite service in the 13.75 to
14.50 GHz frequency band. Designed to operate
at up to 540 watts flange linear power for
multi-carrier uplinks. Ideal for transportable
and fixed earth station applications where space
and prime power are at a premium. 30% smaller
than traditional HPAs.

1Prime power AC line unbalance not to exceed 3%. Excess imbalance may cause
an increase in residual RF noise (AM, FM and PM). Phase noise increase is typically 2.5 dB / %
imbalance.
2AC current harmonic content: less than 20%, primarily fifth and seventh harmonics. Harmonics
must be considered when choosing UPS sources.
