RF Distribution Unit (RFDU)

The RFDU-300 is a multipurpose RF distribution unit designed to interface between various platform antennas and receiving systems. Building on the foundation of its proven predecessors, the RFDU-300 provides the functions of commutation, test switching, test noise generation, RF notch filtering and RF matrix switching in a compact, reliable package.

The RFDU-300 is notable for its advanced filter design. In DSP-based receiver systems, overload caused by signals higher than the dynamic range of the system causes overload or an increase in the apparent noise floor. Our proprietary band-reject filters provide a digitally controlled notch over multi-octave ranges that solves this problem. Frequencies range from a low of 10 kHz all the way up to 18 GHz. A big advantage is our ability to reject frequencies over a wide range without affecting the remaining bandpass, a feature unique to our systems.

 

Ruggedized Communication System

We offer customized equipment design and manufacturing for specialized communications systems, including alerting systems for difficult environments, and both portable and fixed equipment for defense applications.

  • EMP, including high-altitude EMP (HEMP) resistance

  • Severe jamming, both incidental and intentional interference

  • Low probability of intercept, encrypted systems

  • Very narrow, bandwidth-restricted voice systems

  • High noise-level tolerant systems

  • Ruggedized or waterproof systems

 

Jamming Simulators

We have the ability to design and build jammers for aircraft communications, portable systems, fixed station and mobile requirements. Whatever your requirements are in communications jamming, we can customize a design with a variety of capabilities, including wide frequency range, high jamming power, and multiple simultaneous jammers.

 

Medusa Multi-Port RF Test System

The testing of complex multi-port RF systems can be challenging. So we developed a custom test system, “Medusa,” which solves those issues with a flexible, expandable architecture. Typically used to test our RF Distribution Units (RFDUs), Medusa is a fully developed system which provides test switching under computer control for systems operating up to 18 GHzcan be customized to the required use with software.
