Advantech to supply ruggedised SATCOM terminals
Ruggedised military-grade SATCOM terminals will be provided by Advantech Wireless after it received a multimillion-dollar contract with a NATO member country.
The technology, including the GaN (gallium nitride) based solid state power amplifiers, is some of the most advanced available today. Additionally, it is designed for stringent military standards.
Advantech will provide complete terminals for the tactical environment, based on its proprietary antenna control systems and fully integrated design.
“Advantech Wireless has over 25 years of experience enabling military forces and government agencies, delivering cutting-edge innovations in communications that solve mission-critical communications challenges,” said Cristi Damian, VP Business Development at Advantech Wireless.
“These fully integrated all outdoor systems include advanced modem technology, sophisticated SATCOM antenna control systems and the state-of-the-art GaN-based solid state power amplifiers (SSPAs).”
The second-generation GaN-based SSPAs/BUCs are the smallest fully integrated units on the market today. With built-in design features they are suitable for harsh environments, SATCOM on the move (SOTM) and man-pack terminal deployments.
