Preliminary NuPower™ C10Q02 C-Band Power Amplifier
The NuPower™ C10Q02 is an efficient, miniature solid state power amplifier that delivers over 10 watts of RF power across the frequency range of 5250 to 5850 MHz.
Based on the latest gallium nitride (GaN) technology, the NuPower™ C10Q02’s 10 – 30% power efficiency and compact 24 in³ form factor make it ideal for size, weight, and power-constrained RF telemetry and tactical communication systems. The NuPower™ C10Q02’s rugged chassis allows the system integrator to easily incorporate the unit into a platform operating in harsh environments with limited space. MIL-STD-810F Compliant.
Extend your operational communication range with NuPower amplifiers from NuWaves Engineering.
