More than 100 Klystrons and TWTs have been recently replaced by just 4 units of 3kW Ku-Band UltraLinearTM GaN SSPAs” stated Cristi Damian, VP Business Development at Advantech Wireless. “This disruptive technology allows remarkably high levels of performance and also impressive savings in CAPEX, OPEX, including energy cost”.

The New SapphireBluTM Series of UltraLinearTM GaN based amplifiers from Advantech Wireless can cover multiple transponders, full DVB-S2 enabled and can save 8 to 15 dB power compared to indoor Klystrons or linearized TWTs.
