XTD-750X_850XL

The XTD-750X and XTD-850XL are compact self-contained, antenna mountable power amplifiers designed for low cost installation and long life. The design eliminates the need for an amplifier shelter as well as a long waveguide run between the amplifier and the antenna feed horn.

RF harmonic filters, cooling, and monitoring & control systems are all self-contained within the HPA. These features provide high reliability, low maintenance costs, and low replacement costs. The amplifier incorporates high efficiency multi-stage collector TWTs. Some of the benefits of this type of TWT are: reduced prime power consumption, lower internal operating temperatures, and reliability enhancement. These benefits are obtained for both the linear and saturated modes of operation. The XTD-750X and XTD-850XL may be configured for single thread, redundant or phase-combined operation. An optional linearizer is available to allow increased transient power while meeting spectral regrowth requirements. A remote external controller is available to operate the HPA from a user selected location.
