Product Highlights
The Amplifier Research 10S4G18 is a portable, self-contained, air-cooled, broadband, solid-state amplifier designed for applications that require instantaneous bandwidth, high gain and linearity.
- Features:
- When used with a sweep generator, provides a minimum of 10 watts of RF power instantaneously from 5 to 18 GHz and 7 watts from 4 to 5 GHz
- Digital Control Panel (DCP):
- Provides both local and remote control of the amplifier
- Uses a graphic liquid Crystal Display:
- Provides gain setting
- Provides reports of internal amplifier status
- Uses menu assigned softkeys
- Uses a single rotary knob
- Uses a dedicated on/off switch
- Offers extensive control and status reporting capability
- Special features:
- Gain control
- Input overdrive protection
- All control functions and status indications are available remotely in GPIB/IEEE-488 format, RS-232 hardwire and fiber optic, USB, and Ethernet
- Bus interface connection on back panel
- Keylock on front panel assures positive control of local or remote operation
- Low spurious signals, linearity, and load tolerance make it ideal for these various uses:
- RF susceptibility testing
- Antenna/component testing
- Communication technology testing
- As a test instrument covering multiple frequency bands
- Suitable for communication technologies including CDMA, W-CDMA, TDMA, GSM, UWB, WiMAX etc.
