Key Advantages
50W represents a significant milestone in portable RF amplification—bridging the gap between high power and practical deployability. With 47dBm of clean output power, this amplifier delivers 6-10x the effective range of standard 1W systems, providing enough margin to overcome the most challenging interference, weather conditions, and physical obstacles. For applications where link reliability is mission-critical, 50W offers the ultimate safety margin that separates success from failure.
Advanced GaN technology is the backbone of this amplifier's exceptional performance. Gallium Nitride delivers higher efficiency, better thermal performance, and greater power density than conventional silicon-based designs. The result is 50W of clean output in a package that weighs just 150g / 210g —an extraordinary power-to-weight ratio unmatched in this power class.
The 40dB gain transforms even weak input signals into full 50W output with consistent, predictable linearity. Despite the extreme power output, current draw remains efficient at just 3.6A—ensuring you get maximum output without overloading your power supply, whether in fixed installations or mobile field deployments.
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 footprint makes it easy to integrate into ground stations, radar shelters, or portable field kits.
Flexible frequency options – this same high-power GaN 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.
