TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
PE15A5042
The PE15A5042 is a 10 W minimum high gain power coaxial amplifier operating in the 860 to 960 MHz frequency range.
The amplifier offers 10 Watts min of P1dB power and a high 42 dB typical small signal gain with the gain flatness of ±1.5 dB
max. The amplifier requires typically a +12V DC power supply. The connectorized SMA module is unconditionally stable and
operates over the temperature range of -30°C and +70°C.
