Product Description
When your wireless application demands the ultimate in brute-force RF power—whether for extreme long-range FPV, military communications, satellite ground stations, radar systems, or high-power RF testing—this 30W RF Power Amplifier delivers a commanding 45dBm (30W) of clean output power with 40dB gain. Operating on a 24V DC supply (customizable to 28V) with just 2.8A current draw at full output, it features a rugged aluminum housing and SMA female connectors—engineered to withstand the most demanding field operations while delivering the extra margin that separates reliable links from critical failures.
Typical Applications
- Extreme Long-Range FPV & UAV Operations: Boost video downlink or control links for record-breaking BVLOS flights
- Military & Tactical Communications: High-power amplification for field-deployed communication equipment and data links
- Satellite Ground Stations (SATCOM): Amplify uplink signals for ground-to-satellite communication links
- Radar & Detection Systems: High-power RF front-end for weather radar, surveillance, and experimental applications
- RF Test & Development: Ultra-high-power driver amplifier for demanding lab testing and prototyping
- Broadcast & Transmission Systems: Professional-grade amplification for wide-area RF coverage

Key Advantages
Why step up to 30W when 10W or 20W is available? For the most demanding applications—where every extra dB of power translates directly to mission success, operational safety, or record-breaking range—30W delivers the ultimate performance ceiling. With 45dBm of clean output power, this amplifier provides up to 5-8x the effective range of standard 1W systems, with enough margin to punch through the most challenging interference, weather conditions, and physical obstacles.
The 40dB gain transforms even weak input signals into full 30W output with consistent, predictable linearity. Despite the massive power increase, current draw remains highly efficient at just 2.8A—ensuring you get maximum output without overloading your power supply, battery system, or vehicle electrical network.
Thermal performance is engineered for sustained high-power operation. The rugged aluminum housing efficiently dissipates heat, while the compact 96×53×17mm / 132 × 53 × 17 mm form factor and 150g / 210g weight make it surprisingly easy to integrate into fixed installations, ground stations, or portable field kits.
Wide voltage tolerance (24V standard, customizable to 28V) ensures compatibility with vehicle electrical systems, battery banks, solar-charged installations, and regulated power supplies. With SMA female connectors on both input and output, integration with existing RF chains is completely plug-and-play.
Flexible frequency options – this same high-power platform is available for virtually any band up to 7200MHz, making it a versatile solution across the entire RF spectrum. Simply tell us your required frequency, and we'll deliver a tuned amplifier ready for your most demanding applications.
