Comtech Xicom's Gone Wild with a Bobcat, PUMA and Falcon Their New SSPAs and BUC 


Comtech Xicom will be bringing a Bobcat, PUMA and Falcon to Satellite 2020.  Not the animals, rather their three newest lines of SSPAs and BUCs will be revealed in booth 801, at Satellite 2020 in Washington, D.C.

These three products are:

  • Bobcat DC BUCs – Designed for compact terminals needing high power from very small packages. Bobcats enable users to shrink their footprint while speeding their link. BUCs are available in X-, Ku- and Ka-band at powers up to 64 Watts.
  • PUMA SSPAs/BUCs – Designed for fixed and transportable terminals, Pumas are flexible, high-performance AC-powered outdoor SSPAs. Amplifiers and BUCs are available at X-, Ku- and Ka-band with power levels from 80 to 500 Watts supporting a wide range of power levels and redundancy options.
  • Falcon Airborne SSPAs/BUCs – Designed for airborne satcom systems needing high power density with high efficiency, Falcons are high-performance, in-cabin and cabin-exterior SSPAs/BUCs designed for and certified to DO-160 and MIL-STD-810 requirements. Amplifiers are available in Ku- and Ka-band, including multi-band switchable BUCs built into the Ka-band units.
