Explore RF&M Tactical/Airborne SATCOM
Teledyne RF & Microwave (RF&M) offers a wide range of RF modules specifically designed to meet demanding small size, weight, power and cost (SWaP-C) applications in the Military ground mobile, Air (military & commercial) and Marine markets. Using unique chip and wire capabilities RF&M offers extremely rugged and reliable products suitable for the most demanding platforms. With extensive functionality built in, RF&M is able to offer a standard product that will work with most modern SATCOM systems. More information is available from the datasheets below. Feel free to contact us directly to inquire about evaluating a demonstration unit.

X-BAND
RF&M offers both a BUC (with SSPA) and an LNB (without LNA) as a standard product. Using our unique chip and wire capabilities we are able to make an extremely small package with over 25WP1 output power.

Products:
  • SSPA-5W-25W P1
  • BUC/SSPA - 5W-25W P1
  • LNB - Without LNA

Ku-BAND
​Our current product offerings include a very wide range of SSPAs from 5W to 40W in extremely small packages. Each amplifier is hermetically sealed and applicable to many SWaP applications.

Products:
  • 5W-40W P1

Ka-BAND ITAR FREE

​RF&M offers a complete suite of ITAR-FREE (EAR-99) ruggedized products for both Airborne & Ground Mobile Ka-Band systems that have been specifically developed for both legacy and new SATCOM Systems. Both the up & down converters have the ability to electronically switch between the commercial and military Ka/K Bands. Each converter has a number of functions which enable easy integration in legacy and new systems. These include either internal or external reference of either 10 or 50MHz with blanking and attenuation control. By combining these converters with our standard SSPA, a full transceiver can be configured to operate over the 29-31 GHz transmit band and the 19.2-21.2 GHz receive band with just 3 hermetically sealed modules.

Our Standard Airborne SSPA offers 12W minimum linear output power over the full 29-31GHz frequency range. The unit also includes extensive gain control and forward power monitoring. An internal BIT circuit monitors current, thermal and other critical parameters.

RF&M also offers a K-band (19.2-21.2GHz) LNA with 1.6dB noise figure over the full 2 GHz bandwidth. With a total weight of 0.5 lbs and small size, the unit is ideal for today's integrated, light weight Ka-Band terminals.
