Gilat Announces Launch of
Endurance, a New Line of “Always-On” SSPA Products
March 8, 2023
Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd.
announced today that its US-based Wavestream
subsidiary is launching “Endurance,” a new line of
high-power, “always-on” solid state power amplifier
(SSPA) products.
Wavestream’s Endurance product
line is positioned to lead the industry in linear
power with its gateway-ready, fully redundant design
that ensures the maximum available power for
multiple carrier inputs. The 500W Ka-Wideband Block
Upconverter (BUC) covers both military Ka and
commercial Ka frequency bands and features
hot-swappable components for a truly “always-on”
satellite communication solution. As a high-power,
high-performance, high-availability modular
amplifier solution, Endurance is designed to disrupt
the industry by its ability to replace existing
SATCOM solutions currently serviced by Traveling
Wave Tube Amplifiers (TWTAs).
“We’re excited that our new
Endurance SSPAs are already being evaluated by the
US DoD for a significant SATCOM program,” said Bob
Huffman, Wavestream’s General Manager and Gilat’s
Senior VP. “Once certified, we expect follow-on
orders valued at millions of dollars in the coming
years and the ability to pursue other US DoD and
commercial programs.”
