The 2–8 GHz frequency band spans the S and C bands, serving as a critical range for electronic warfare, radar countermeasures, drone signal suppression, and broadband testing systems. While achieving a 100W output in a laboratory setting is relatively straightforward, the real challenge lies in maintaining that 100W output after exposure to thermal shock, mechanical vibration, and prolonged continuous operation—all while ensuring that protection mechanisms can intervene promptly during anomalies to prevent costly system-level damage.
The Coreal C2080H50 is designed precisely with this objective in mind. It delivers 100W of output power and 50dB of gain across the entire 2000–8000 MHz frequency range. Housed in a compact 180 × 90 × 25 mm package and powered by a 30V supply, its true competitive edge stems from the rigorous, systematic reliability verification process that every unit undergoes before leaving the factory.
Core Product Specifications
Model No.: C2080H50
Frequency Range: 2000 – 8000 MHz
Output Power: 100 W
Gain: 50 dB
Supply Voltage: 30 V DC
Dimensions: 180 × 90 × 25 mm
Factory Testing:
Burn-in Testing: 24 Hours for First Units, 12 Hours for Subsequent Units
The C2080H50 undergoes a powered burn-in screening process—24 hours for the initial unit and 12 hours for subsequent units in an order. This approach strikes an engineering balance between delivery timelines and reliability assurance, ensuring thorough validation for the first unit while maintaining consistent screening intensity for batch production.
Temperature Testing: -55°C to 85°C, 5 Cycles
The C2080H50 is subjected to temperature testing across a wide range of -55°C to +85°C, consisting of 5 complete cycles, with each cycle lasting 2 hours. This temperature range encompasses the typically harsh environments encountered, from the low temperatures found at high altitudes to the high-temperature conditions within airborne or vehicle-mounted compartments. Furthermore, multi-cycle testing is employed to verify the stability of the product’s parameters and its structural integrity when subjected to repeated thermal shocks.
Vibration Testing: Mandatory for First Articles
For the C2080H50, vibration testing is performed on the first article to verify the integrity of PCB solder joints, RF connectors, and internal interconnect structures under dynamic loads—areas particularly susceptible to vibration-induced failure.
Built-in Protection:
The C2080H50 features four layers of integrated protection:
- Overcurrent protection
- Overvoltage protection
- Overtemperature protection
- Load Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) protection
Typical Applications
- Electronic warfare
- Radar
- Communications
- EMC and wideband test systems
The C2080H50 is ISO 9001 and CE certified and comes with a 36-month warranty (including 18 months of free coverage). Please visit our Product Center to view detailed technical specifications for the C2080H50, or contact us directly for selection guidance and sample reliability verification reports.
