Small, lightweight & powerful
ATOM Series
The ATOM series of Ku and Ka-band BUCs and Solid State Power Amplifiers (SSPAs) are small, light, and extremely powerful. With industry best size, weight, power and efficiency, ATOM series BUCs are easily integrated into a variety of systems, making them ideal for applications such as: COTM/COTP, Portable VSAT, CDL, Airborne, RADAR and TWTA replacement.
Main features include:
• 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
Norsat’s Customization Advantage:
BUC Customization and Certifications
Norsat offers BUC or SSPA customization to meet the specific environmental, EMC/EMI, RF and mechanical requirements required for the application.
Norsat’s products are designed to meet the requirements of RTCA DO-160, MIL STD 461, MIL STD 1275, MIL STD 704 and MIL STD 810 and Norsat has experience tailoring our products to meet these demanding requirements.
Comms on the Move
• 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
• 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
