Military Booster Amplifiers

The AR-50 and AR-75 are robust booster amplifiers designed and targeted for the harshest defense and military environments.

The AR-50 (JITC IW Certified) has one of the smallest footprints in its class.  It provides auto-band sensing and switching, Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) with Co-Site Filtering supporting VHF/UHF/LOS/SATCOM/HPW/DAMA/IW/ SINCGARS/HAVEQUICK WNW/SRW/ANW2/ for tactical radios.  This tactical booster amplifier delivers the full 50 Watts across the entire 30-512 MHz frequency range. Built to last, the AR-50 is packaged in a rugged, IP67 rated, 2-piece aluminum 4.4lbs. enclosure. The unit is designed for the use with single or multi-band tactical radio for military, public safety, and government agencies.

The AR-75 is designed for vehicle or base stations delivers the full 75 Watts across the entire 30-512 MHz band. With an optional Bias-T, the AR-75 can be virtually mounted anywhere in the vehicle. The unit is radio vendor independent, single and multi-band radio compatible.  The amplifier covers the frequency band of 30-512 MHz using six high speed auto switching filters to assure harmonic suppression and is SINCGARS, HAVEQUICK, HPW, DAMA, IW, WNW, SRW and ANW2 compatible. The amplifier includes power supply Voltage Spike Suppression, a DC/DC convertor for wide DC input range, RF sensing, T/R switching, Automatic Level Control (ALC), six automatically switched harmonic filter bands (DAMA capable), and protection against antenna mismatch and over-temperature. Protection against accidental polarity reversal is also  provided. The amplifier comprises a rugged 2-piece aluminum case.

AR-50 & AR-75 Features:

  • High speed switched filters make the unit SINCGARS, HAVEQUICK, and ECCM compatible with internal  SATCOM LNA and Co-site filtering
  • RF sensing, T/R switching, and automatic level control (ALC)
  • Protection against antenna mismatch, over-temperature and accidental polarity reversal
  • Three-year warranty
