The XTD-400 is a compact self contained antenna mountable high power amplifier (HPA) designed for low cost installation and long life. The outdoor design eliminates the need for an amplifier shelter as well as a long waveguide run between the amplifier and the antenna feed horn. RF filters, cooling, and monitoring & control (M&C) systems are all self contained within the HPA. These features provide high reliability, low maintenance costs, and low replacement costs. The XTD-400 uses high efficiency dual-stage collector Traveling Wave Tubes (TWT).
Some benefits of this type of TWT are:
• Reduced prime power consumption
• Lower internal operating temperatures
• Reliability enhancement A complete serial M&C system is built into the unit.
A remote external controller is available to operate the HPA from a user selected location.
