ESSPx-Ku50

Product catalog summary

Overview: The ESSPx series is a range of outdoor solid-state power amplifiers (SSPAs) developed by Elber, utilizing GaN transistor technology. These amplifiers offer output power ranging from 50W to 200W and are designed for outdoor use with a weatherproof cabinet. The ESSPA-Ku50 is a specific 50W Ku-band version that includes an in-house designed upconverter.

Key Features:

Output power of 50W (PSAT) with high gain and linearity.
Fully protected against over-temperature, over-current, and high VSWR.
Gain adjustment capability and output sample monitor port.
Autonomous 1+1 redundancy management.
Remote monitoring and control via serial and Ethernet ports.

Catalog excerpts

The ESSPx is the outdoor solid-state power amplifiers factured by Elber with GaN transistor technology, with output power from 50W up to 200W. Available also as SSPB with in-house designed upconverter, the ESSPA-Ku50 is the 50W Ku-band version. The ESSPx is an integrated unit, comprehensive of power supply and cooling system, housed in a weatherproof cabinet for safe outdoor installation and operation. Safe operation is preserved also through automatic software/hardware shutdown of final stages in case of overtemperature, over-current and high reflected power.
