SpacePath embraces the millimetre-wave future
SpacePath to Showcase Full Spectrum of Outdoor Millimetre-Wave Amplifiers at Satellite 2024
SpacePath Communications (‘SpacePath’), a provider of high-performance satellite uplink amplifiers and associated equipment for the global SATCOM market, will be showcasing its high-power millimetre-wave travelling wave tube amplifiers (TWTA) at Satellite 2024 in Washington DC.
SpacePath’s very high-power TWTA amplifiers, coupled with broadband millimetre-wave frequencies, enables significantly higher data rates for commercial, military and scientific missions.
The company’s latest millimetre-wave amplifiers on display at Satellite 2024 will include:
- - 550W K-band TWTA (22.5-23.5 GHz) for lunar and deep-space missions
- - 750W Ka-band TWTA (27.5-31.0 GHz) for high-throughput satellite and military applications
- - 200W Q-band TWTA (43.5-45.5 GHz) for military SATCOM
Completing SpacePath’s broad product offering, existing millimetre wave products include:
- - 400W K-band TWTA (22.5-23.5 GHz)
- - 650/550W Ka-band TWTA (27.5-31.0 GHz)
- - 180/190W Q-band TWTA (43.5-45.5 GHz)
- - 250W V-band TWTA (47.2-51.4 GHz)
SpacePath’s third-generation high-power amplifier technology incorporates many market-leading features to streamline maintenance, drive down cost and simplify overall system operation.
These include:
- - Modular construction for ease of assembly and service
- - Revolutionary compressed carbon cooling for smaller, lighter form factor
- - Plug-n-play compatibility with competitor’s command interface
Colin Bolton, director of business development, SpacePath Communications, said: “The growth markets for high-power amplifiers are in high-throughput satellite networks at Ka- and Q/V-band as well as military and scientific missions at K- and Q-band. At Satellite 2024, we’ll be showcasing our new millimetre-wave amplifiers which feature the highest power available to serve these demanding market segments.”
SpacePath’s high performance uplink amplifiers cover all mission-critical segments including high-throughput satellite (HTS), mobile satellite, fixed-earth stations and military satellite communications.
