RF7 Series

X-Band LNA
7.25 - 7.75 GHz

Description
The RF7 Series X-Band Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) offers
premium performance and reliability in the most versatile
package available for a X-Band LNA.
The latest technology in GaAs HEMT devices produces the
lowest possible noise temperatures in an uncooled LNA.
In addition, the RF7 Series LNA is backed by a 36-month
warranty and by more than 30 years experience in the design
of high performance communications amplifiers.
The performance of the RF7 Series LNA is matched by a full
range of features chosen with the communication system
designer in mind.
From the compact weatherproof housing to the standard
combination of RF cable and circular connector DC input, the
RF7 Series LNA is ready for integration into your system.
