Hades X2

70-90GHz

Low SWAP, with Tx Saturated powers up to >+30dBm

Our next generation Hades X2 E-Band active diplexer are designed to allow our customers to reduce the cost of their E-band radios whilst increasing performance.

Active diplexers incorporate a Tx RF power detector to facilitate Tx power calibration and ALC. Where specified, the modules can be supplied fully calibrated with Tx detector vs. frequency/power and Rx gain information stored onto an integrated I2C EEPROM. An integrated temperature sensor provides users with accurate amplifier temperature data. The WR12 port locations & directions can be configured upon request.

The configurable nature of Hades allows us to incorporate a range of GaAs and/or InP amplifiers in both the Tx and Rx chain and includes the option to power combine 2 GaAs PAs to deliver market leading linear Tx powers to deliver unparalleled performance for long range E-Band communications.

    Product description

    Filtronic’s range of Hades Active Diplexers are designed to allow our customers to reduce the cost of their E-band radios whilst increasing performance.
    Our Active Diplexers incorporate a configurable range of GaAs PAs & LNAs within an E-Band diplexer, maximizing performance whilst reducing size and weight. Active diplexers can be used in conjunction with a wide range of COTs SMT compatible packaged GaAs or SiGe up and down converter solutions to boost performance beyond that achievable with surface mount products. This allows our customers to deploy configurable “standard power” and “high-power” E-Band links without changing the radio mechanics.
