8100-161 RF Power Amplifier

Enhances Testing Performance for Continuous Productivity

The Model 8100-161 RF Power Amplifier delivers 350 W of output power across the 6 GHz to 18 GHz range, making it ideal for demanding EMC applications, including MIL-STD 461 RS103 testing. Featuring a high-reliability MOSFET design, it provides excellent linearity, efficiency, and rugged performance suitable for continuous operation in high-field environments. Operating in Class A, the amplifier offers very low distortion and full tolerance for 100% output mismatch, ensuring stable, consistent performance even under challenging load conditions. Remote control capability via Ethernet, USB, and GPIB enables seamless integration into automated test systems, while the standard 19-inch rack-mount configuration—or optional bench-mount version with front panel connectors—provides flexible installation for both laboratory and production test setups.
