The RH6136 is a solid state, broadband power amplifier,
designed to meet the new standards of software reprogrammable radios to satisfy the performance required in the use of HF radios in modern, digital communication systems.
The RH6136 has proven performance used as a standard RF amplification module. The RF Amplifier/Power Supply is a self-contained unit suitable for tabletop or 19” rack installation.
Broadband RF amplification with the complete elimination of tunable elements gives the family’s components the frequency agility characteristics required by ALE (Automatic Link Establishment) operation over the HF band.
The main features of the amplifier are:
- Built-in controller
- LCD monitor
- 2 –levels overheat protection
- Short/open output protection
- Continuous operational cycle at full output power
- High reliability in harsh environment
