5.8GHz Bi-directional 802.11a 5 Watt Amplifier
This 5.8GHz bi-directional amplifier is designed for 802.11a radios or any OFDM radios in 5GHz band. Since the 16 QAM modulation requires highly linear mode operation, this amplifier delivers max of 1Watt power with all 802.11a or similar radio equipment.
For FM, AM or other modulation schemes, this unit delivers up to 5 Watt output. Housed outdoor weatherproof enclosure, the amplifier works at a temperature range of -40 °C to 70°C.
