SpacePath Meets Emerging Market Need With New Amplifier Range For VHTS

March 29, 2022

“The appetite for high data services is booming and operators have identified Q- and V-bands to increase throughput and transmit higher bandwidth frequencies.”

SpacePath Communications (‘SpacePath’), European-based SATCOM amplifier manufacturer and equipment supplier, is launcherd its high-power V-band amplifier range at the SATELLITE 2022 Conference & Exhibition in Washington, DC. 

Driven by a new major European requirement for Very High Throughput Satellite (VHTS) applications, SpacePath is launching the new 250W Peak V-band (47.2-51.4GHz) high-power amplifier range. Increasingly, satellite operators are using Q/V-band links for VHTS and cellular broadband networks with VHTS systems generally used for Direct-To-Home (DTH) applications, where the user bandwidth required increases by an order of magnitude. 

SpacePath’s outdoor-mounted amplifier design also incorporates their unique carbon-cooling structure, providing a smaller, lighter, form factor which allows closer mounting to the feed of the antenna for minimizing power loss. The new liquid cooled amplifiers can be provided in redundant sub-systems, which incorporate SpacePath’s redundant modular, Tilt & Slide® mounting frame, a proprietary design that can reduce costs by simplifying all installation, maintenance and upgrading operations. 

Future plans include extending the V-band amplifier bandwidth to 47.2-52.4GHz, available in both air-cooled and liquid cooled versions.

Colin Bolton, director of business development, said, “The appetite for high data services is booming and operators have identified Q- and V-bands to increase throughput and transmit higher bandwidth frequencies. Anticipating this requirement, our new amplifiers provide the essential high frequency, high-power solution for this emerging market.”

SpacePath’s high performance uplink amplifiers cover all mission-critical segments including satellite newsgathering (DSNG), flyaway or truck-based systems, fixed-Earth stations and military satellite communications.
