Product details
The CPI PKO14S70LA / PKM14S70LA is a 70W Ku-Band antenna-mount SSPA from CPI's PK14SxxLA line. It delivers 70W saturated and 56W minimum at 1 dB compression (28W linear) across 14.00–14.50 GHz (PKM14S70LA) or the extended 13.75–14.50 GHz band (PKO14S70LA, 1 dB lower below 14.0 GHz).
This antenna-mount unit has 75 dB of gain with 20 dB of adjustment, a WR-75G waveguide output and a power-factor-corrected 100–242 VAC supply drawing 650W typ., 750W max. Options add an internal L-band block upconverter (Option 7) and 1:1 redundancy capability (Option 4).
Order it as PKO14S70LA-XX / PKM14S70LA-XX; the suffix adds the redundancy and block upconverter options. The PK14SxxLA Series comes in 3 listed models; compare them on the series page.
