Product Description
The 5.8GHz band is a proven choice for FPV video, UAV telemetry, remote control, and point-to-point ISM wireless links, but higher frequencies can lose signal margin quickly when distance, terrain, or interference increases. This 5.8GHz 5W RF Power Amplifier is designed to strengthen the transmit path in drone video downlinks, telemetry radios, industrial wireless equipment, and fixed 5.8GHz radio systems. Its compact aluminum housing, SMA-K input/output connectors, and wide DC input simplify integration into airborne, ground-station, and pole-mounted installations. When link margin becomes the limiting factor, this module provides focused RF amplification in a rugged, field-ready form factor.
Typical Applications
- FPV Video Downlinks: Enhance transmit performance for real-time FPV and payload video.
- UAV Telemetry & Remote Control: Reinforce command and telemetry links in extended drone operations.
- 5.8GHz ISM Wireless Backhaul: Improve transmit coverage for point-to-point and multipoint radio systems.
- Industrial Wireless & SCADA: Boost signals for remote sensors, controllers, and industrial radio equipment.
- Public Safety & Surveillance: Extend video and data coverage in remote or obstructed areas.
- Licensed RF Testing & Development: Support 5.725-5.85GHz experimentation with higher transmit output.
