1500–1700MHz 30W/40W TX Power Amplifier Module for Long-Range UAV Links | Chipomi

This specialized high-power signal amplifier is engineered for critical drone and UAV command & control links, operating on the transmitting channel (TX) within the 1500–1700MHz frequency range.

Delivering 45/46dBm output power (30W/40W) with 40±1dB gain, the module is designed to improve link robustness and signal penetration in extended-range UAV communication setups. The compact aluminum enclosure (96x53x17mm) supports integration where space and thermal handling matter.

The amplifier supports 24V / 28V operation, uses SMA-Female input and output connectors, and is specified for -30℃ to +85℃ environments. Custom power and frequency configurations are stated as available by ACASOM.
