The KU PA 640700 - 25 A is a high power and highly linear amplifier for terrestrial data links and SATCOM uplinks. Using GaAs FETs a preeminent linearity in combination with high frequency and output power is reached. The 12 V supply voltage ease usage in non-stationary environments such as broadcast vehicles or flying platforms.
