Stancoms Amplifiers
Stancom has developed many different amplifiers for different applications. Low, medium and high power as well as low noise and high intercept. As the applications are quite diverse please supply us with your requirement and specification, Stancom would be happy to quote.
Low Noise Mast Head Amplifiers
MHA003A Low noise Masthead + SBT003A Smart Bias T
Improve your system performance and overcome the loss in feeder cable which translates directly in to added system noise. Many receivers have poor Noise Figures 0f 3-6dB add cable loss of another 3-6dB and you system could have as much as a 12dB Noise Floor. Improve this by adding a Stancom Masthead LNA. Fitted adjacent to the Antenna with only 2dB noise systems can be improved from 12dB to 3dB. Noise.
Stancom has now released its range of mast head amplifiers, used either stand alone or to complement the range of Multicouplers. These units are designed to be robust and manufactured to high standard. The use of the latest cutting edge low noise semiconductors offer unprecedented performance.
PSU004A – Low Noise Power supply
Low Noise Power Supply For DC Feed
Stancom produces a low noise DC PSU, the PSU004A.
This power supply can be set to a number of preset output voltages.
It can provide up to 500mA of low noise DC.
Ultra Linear Wideband Medium Power Amplifiers 5 – 800MHz.
Stancom uses many techniques to measure high level TOI of its product. Filters are possible but limit test frequencies. Another method is to use high linearity medium power amplifiers to increase isolation between Signal generators and increase linearity point.
Stancom has made available the LIA004 wide band amplifier. Using these amplifiers in a wide band combining format allows a source intercept of +55dBm TOI to be made available at drive levels up to +20dBm.

HF Low Noise Phase Matched Amplifier Array 2-30MHz
A common problem with CDAA type HF antenna arrays is that the system noise performance can be poor at higher frequencies in the HF band. By installing Stancom LIA001 with a gain of 10dB and NF typically 2.5dB, system performance can be greatly improved. Signals previously ‘lost in noise’ can now be recovered.
The LIA001 is a high dynamic range ‘Line’ or ‘Cable’ amplifier. The amplifier is designed to have a repeatable phase characteristic so that when used together, good phase match between multiple LIA001’s is maintained. This is critical when multi element phased array antennas use Amplifiers for reducing loss over a long coaxial cable run. Before the antenna ‘beam former’.
Arrays of 8, 12, 24, 32 and 48 are available.

Modules have Independent BITE
Wideband Power Amplifiers
Stancom has designed and manufactured a number of Wideband RF amplifiers from 1.5MHz to 500MHz, powers > 100W and beyond.
Most of our wide band amplifiers are developed based on customers specification needs.
They can be as module format or packaged rack mounted.
