ATOM BUCs & SSPAs
Norsat’s ATOM series of Ku and Ka-band GaN and GaAs Block Upconverters are small, light, and extremely efficient. With industry leading size, weight, power and MIL-STD specs, these BUCs can be integrated into a variety of systems with the most stringent specifications and extreme form factors, making them ideal for applications such as Airborne, RADAR, TWTA replacement, SOTM, COTP, Portable VSAT, CDL and more.
KEY FEATURES
Up to 85% smaller than equivalent BUCs
Lightest available weight, at up to 90% less than competing products
Ultra efficient, consuming up to 60% less power than similar units
Ideal for applications such as Airborne, Comms on the Move, TWTA Replacement
Highly Customizable
Excellent Thermal Management
3-Year Warranty for standard BUCs
COMMS-ON-THE-MOVE
BUCs and SSPAs for
- Unmanned ISR (intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance)
- Ground vehicles
- Manned aircraft
- Maritime Vessels
- Airborne
- SMALL SIZE
simplifies integration and saves space on platform or in transit case - LOW WEIGHT
means lower vehicle payload weight or lower portable VSAT transport weight - LOW POWER CONSUMPTION
means lower platform power demand and/or increased battery life - LOW HEAT DISSIPATION
simplifies platform/radome cooling and improves reliability in high temperature environments
RADAR SOLUTIONS
BUCs and SSPAs for:
- Remote Sensing Radar
- Ground Weather Radar
- Search and Rescue
- UAV Weather Radar
FAST SWITCHING
provide huge power savings for low-duty cycle pulsed radar systems- HIGHLY RELIABLE
offer more than 2-times the operating life of current technology - LOW VOLTAGE
low voltage power supply is safer, simpler to operate, and more reliable current technology
