A wideband, low-noise RF amplifier with high gain. It operates in the 30 MHz to 6 GHz band and is powered by a built-in battery providing up to 6 hours of operation. Charging is carried out with a current of 210 mA, and the total current consumption is 270 mA. Thanks to its high gain (up to 43 dB), the module is particularly well suited for compensating losses in long cable lines – it is recommended to place it as close to the antenna as possible, rather than at the receiver input.

The device provides very good noise performance, high linearity and gain stability, which makes it suitable for advanced measurement and communication applications, including mobile environments.
