Well suited for today's modern 2x2 MIMO radios, the TTRM4005DR is designed to extend range of mission-critical communications. Covering the lower C-Band, this BDA offers 25 Watts of output power, and operates from 4400 - 5000 MHz. State-of-the-art GaN devices, along with complex matching circuits for the driver and final devices, allow the TTRM4005DR to deliver 5 Watts of OFDM output power per channel, while maintaining an EVM of 4.4%. Compared to our older model, the TTRM1008D, this new dual BDA is 30% efficient at 20 W, and 15% at 5 W. That's almost four times more efficient than the old model, meaning lower power consumption, longer battery life, and less required cooling. Featuring an integrated heatsink and an IP67 rated DC/Control circular connector, the TTRM4005DR has been built to survive in all harsh environments. The unit has been designed in the same manner as our other military products that have successfully passed the rigorous tests of MIL-STD-810G and MIL-STD-961. Integrating the heatsink also helps cut down on size, allowing the TTRM4005DR to measure in at only 6.00 x 4.77 x 2.50 inches to help meet strict SWAP requirements. The TTRM4005D comes with several new features including the following:

Available with either RF-detect automatic Tx/Rx switching or manual Tx/Rx control Status pin to indicate over-temperature alarm, or a failure mode. Improved base plate temperature output circuitry

Production quantities have already begun shipping to several domestic and international customers of high speed video and data links. Additional information on this product can be found here: TTRM4005DR

The all new TA1017 is a 50 Watt power amplifier that covers both L and S Band. The model offers impressive power in a small and lightweight package, making it ideal for, but not limited to Unmanned Vehicles and DBV-T applications. The TA1017 is also an excellent choice for LTE, WiFi, and any other L or S band application where small size and high output power are essential. The unit offers 27 dB of gain, and can operate with input DC voltages ranging from +10 to +28 VDC! The GaN unit produces 10 W of linear RF power while only drawing 2 A at 28 V. This translates to 18% efficiency. Please see the TA1017 web page for more information.

Wide-Band BDA - Full Band Auto Switching - RF Cafe

Triad introduces the TTRM1210, a wideband GaN BDA that operates from 30 MHz to 2700 MHz, and produces over 8 W of peak Tx power. One of the smallest BDAs in the industry measuring only 3.25 x 2.12 x 0.53 inches, this feature rich BDA is also one of the most efficient. While producing 8 W of RF power, it only consumes 24W of DC power. It also produces over 2 W of linear 16 QAM power with <9% EVM. This BDA's small size and high efficiency make it ideal for SWaP friendly commercial and military software defined radio (SDR) applications. In order to be compatible with a wide variety of existing platforms, the TTRM1210 offers the option of Automatic Tx/Rx switching across its entire operating frequency band, as well as a wide DC input range of +11 to +28 VDC. Regardless of the selected option, switching between Tx and Rx takes less than 1 µsec. Additionally, base plate temperature can be monitored via an analog temperature sensor output pin on the DC/Control connector. Additional information on this BDA can be found here: TTRM1210

The TA1109 is a small form factor, lightweight circuit card amplifier that has been designed to be integrated into existing CubeSat and NanoSat satellite systems. Operating from 2000 to 2500 MHz, the TA1109 is compatible with most lower S-Band transmitters. This amplifier also offers up to 4 W of output power to ensure proper communication while operating in Low Earth orbit (LEO). Weighing in at less than a half an ounce with a footprint of only 2.7 x 1.3 inches, the TA1109 is perfect for applications where small size and light weight is critical,. With a voltage input range of +9 to +14 VDC, the TA1109 is versatile enough to operate on a range of available voltage buses typically found on a CubeSat chassis.
