XTD-270DBS Antenna-Mount TWTA, DBS-Band, 270W
The XTD-270DBS is a compact self contained antenna mountable high power amplifier (HPA) designed for low cost installation and long life. The outdoor design eliminates the need for an amplifier shelter as well as a long waveguide run between the amplifier and the antenna feed horn. RF filters, cooling, and monitoring & control (M&C) systems are all self contained within the HPA. These features provide high reliability, low maintenance costs, and low replacement costs.
The XTD-270DBS uses high efficiency dual-stage collector Traveling Wave Tubes (TWT). Some benefits of this type of TWT are:
- Reduced prime power consumption
- Lower internal operating temperatures
- Reliability enhancement
These benefits are obtained for both the linear and saturated modes of operation. The XTD-270DBS incorporates power factor correction circuitry which minimizes line current distortion and reduces the required volt-amps. The combination of power factor correction and high efficiency TWTs reduces input Volt-Amps by 45% when compared to equivalent amplifiers. A high frequency resonant conversion power supply is used that accepts a wide range of prime power (100 to 260 VAC).
XTD-270DBS Features
- No Shelter Required
- Short Waveguide Run
- Power Factor Corrected
- High Efficiency Dual-Stage TWTs
- Complete RS-232/422/485 Interface
A complete serial M&C system is built into the unit. A remote external controller is available to operate the HPA from a user selected location.
