This Vertex 50W KU-Band BUC a medium sized amplifier, with a
frequency range of 14 GHz to 14.5 GHz. The amplifier is an SSPA with
a BUC frequency converter built in. This combination if often called
an SSPB.
The BUC is designed to operate outside on the antenna, and has the
necessary environmental hardening. Because the BUC can be mounted
close to the antenna feed, long runs of expensive waveguide are not
required.
The full Vertex model is PKM14S50A and has been tested to work well
across the entire frequency range.
