Our remarkable hardware and software architecture is advanced beyond any other amplifier supplier and offers break through capabilities not seen before in EW systems. Among these capabilities are Multi-domain operations where a single unit is capable of operating in Multi-Domain scenarios as a jamming, communications and radar transmitter at optimal performance with any type of modulation.
Military AmplifiersEmpower is a major leader in providing leading edge, "Best in Class" power amplifiers for command and control communications for the warfighter, civilian and homeland network applications. These multi-band, multi-mission, highly integrated amplifiers are designed for software-defined radios in manpack, vehicular and fixed site configurations.
Communications AmpsEMC compliance labs are choosing Empower RF for its technology advancements that have leapfrogged the old establishment while offering refreshing and long overdue performance and feature set enhancements. We provide best in class RF and Microwave amplifiers that go beyond 200V/m CW and 600V/m pulsed for todays demanding Radiated Susceptibility testing requirements.
EMC Test AmplifiersWe offer a wide variety of power amplifiers as stand alone or high power tube drivers up to several kilowatts. Radar applications include HF for over-the-horizon (OTH), VHF for very long range and ground generation and UHF for very long range (e.g. ballistic missile early warning) and foliage penetration (SAR). Empower has also provided amplifiers in L-band for long range air traffic control and surveillance (IFF) as well as S-band for moderate range surveillance and long range weather.
Radar AmplifiersThe growing demand in commercial and military applications for higher data rates, greater reliability, and lower cost is driving technology upgrades in fixed site and tactical mobile satellite uplink transmitters. Higher data rates is the main catalyst driving the trend of solid state replacement of legacy tube systems. But it’s not solid state alone that matters. It’s the electro-RF/mechanical architecture that brings additional performance and reliability advantages.

Designed to deliver extreme power with unmatched reliability, Empower RF Systems announces their newest GaN on SiC amplifier, the model 2245. This liquid cooled amplifier delivers a minimum of 4100W CW from 2 to 4GHz with 5kW mid band performance. Reliability is a key feature and the result of its distributed RF architecture. With no single point of RF failure, the 2245 boasts extreme Effective Mean Time Before Failure (EMTBF).
The modular architecture allows hot or muted swapping of the integrated amplifier drawers or cold swap of the 3U system controller in less than 15 minutes. Repair is modular, fast and easy, bringing life time costs down. Specialized technician training is not required and there are no dangerous high voltage supplies to contend with. Because of the architecture, only fractional system spares are needed for a complete backup system. You only need to spare a single amplifier drawer and one controller. The 2245 is the smart choice for those seeking exceptional reliability and lowest lifetime cost of ownership.
