The
rack-mount solid state power amplifiers (SSPAs) designed for
satellite up-link applications include a full-featured
microprocessor based Monitor & Control, a serial-port interface
(RS232 or 422/485), an Alpha Numerical Display and a remote gain
control adjustment. This model allows for a convenient redundancy
topology (1:1 or 1:2) using
Advantech's
redundancy kit.
As an option, our range of amplifiers can be equipped with an L-band
input, which will be block-converted up to the output frequency. We
call these products SSPBs.
We can also supply amplifiers operating in the L-band.

All of Advantech AMT's solid state amplifiers with
microprocessor controller (ARMA and AWMA Series) can
be configured for redundant 1:1 or 1:2 operations.
No external controller is required. For redundancy
operations, in addition to the amplifiers (operating
and standby), a special redundancy kit is required.
The kit includes the waveguide switches,
terminations, RF splitter, waveguide arms and
interconnecting cables. A mounting frame is also
required, please see the product list for more
details. Access for full remote monitoring and
control of the system is provided via the serial
communication port.
Redundant Systems 1:1
For 1:1 operations, two redundant ready amplifiers (ARMA
and AWMA Series), one active and one standby, plus a
1:1 redundancy kit and a frame are required. The
standard 1:1 redundant SSPA systems are configured
to operate in the hot standby mode. The kit includes
an input coaxial splitter.
Redundant Systems 1:2
For 1:2 operations, three redundant ready amplifiers
(ARMA and AWMA Series), two active and one standby,
and a 1:2 redundancy kit and a frame are required.
The standby amplifier will automatically replace a
failed amplifier. Switch-over will not occur to a
defective or missing amplifier.

SSPB refers to Advantech AMT's line
of hub-mount, block up-converter
transmitters operating in the C, X,
Ku and DBS bands.
Used in conjunction with indoor
L-band transceivers, SSPBs provide
the utmost in convenience and
efficiency. The SSPB is an
integrated unit complete with power
supply, phase-locked oscillator,
mixer, filter and cooling mechanism.
SSPBs are available for operation in
any of the standard up-link
frequency bands. SSPBs are also
available for low output power (our
'mini' series).
