July 15, 2026 - Inglewood, CA - Empower RF Systems announces the release of its
new Model 1240, a compact, high-performance RF amplifier module
delivering a guaranteed minimum of 200 watts across the 900-1700 MHz frequency
range. Designed to address the evolving demands of modern electronic warfare (EW)
and counter-unmanned aerial systems (C-UAS), the Model 1240 expands Empower RF's
portfolio of tactically deployable, high-reliability solutions.
The Model 1240 is a full gain "smart module" built on advanced GaN transistor
technology, integrating comprehensive control and monitoring features to ensure
consistent RF performance under all environmental conditions. Its compact form factor
and high power density make it ideal for mobile, airborne, shipboard, and ground-based
defense platforms where space, weight, and reliability are critical.
What sets the Model 1240 apart is its strategically targeted frequency coverage.
The 900-1700 MHz range aligns directly with operationally significant bands
used in modern communications, navigation, and drone control systems:
- Cellular disruption: The 900 MHz band and adjacent ranges are widely used
for GSM and cellular communications globally, making them key targets for signal
denial.
- GNSS interference: GPS and GNSS systems operate within the L-band (1-2 GHz),
leveraging frequencies such as L1 (1575.42 MHz), L2 (1227.60 MHz), and
L5 (1176.45 MHz) for accurate positioning and navigation
- Drone control and telemetry: The 900 MHz ISM band is commonly used for
long-range drone command links and video transmission.
The introduction of the Model 1240 is not a replacement of existing solutions,
but a strategic addition - giving system designers and integrators a new, high-power
option tailored to real-world operational needs. By covering this spectrum, the
Model 1240 provides a powerful tool for enabling or disrupting positioning, timing,
and control systems.
