This Class A amplifier is ideal for broadband data applications, particularly for airborne installations, where its
compact size and high efficiency are critical.
The 60 Watt amplifier is flight qualified and is designed to fully comply with INMARSAT® requirements and ARINC®
protocols for use with two 16QAM carriers. Its features include monitoring and control through an ARINC 429 interface and a customizable RS-232 interface.
The amplifier is qualified under RTCA/DO160D for use in an uninhabited airborne environment.
