Product details

The CPI DPKO14200R / DPKM14200R is a 200W Ku-Band rack-mount SSPA from CPI's DPK14200R line. It delivers 200W saturated (+53 dBm) and 158W minimum at 1 dB compression (+52.0 dBm) across 14.00–14.50 GHz (DPKM14200R) or the extended 13.75–14.50 GHz band (DPKO14200R, 1 dB lower below 14.0 GHz).

Built with technology from CPI's ModuMAX amplifiers, it has a modular architecture with 69 dB minimum gain, forward and reflected power monitoring, SNMP and HTTP network control, and integral 1:1 redundancy control. It runs on 90–135 or 180–270 VAC (2000W typical) in a 19 in, 8.75 in high chassis.

Order it as DPKO14200R (extended band) or DPKM14200R (standard band).

Frequently asked questions

Can I set these up as a 1:1 or 1:2 redundant system?

Yes. Each SSPA has integral 1:1 redundancy control, and CPI builds 1:1 and 1:2 redundant systems around them. The RCP-2001 remote panel adds control from another location. Digisat can supply, install and commission the complete system.

How much rack space and power does it need?

It's a 19 in rack chassis, 8.75 in (222 mm) high and 27.88 in deep, weighing about 93 lb. It runs on 90–135 VAC or 180–270 VAC and draws about 2000W typically, up to 2400W at a cold start in saturation.
