uXBT X-Band Transponder

Based on Voyager’s legacy μSTDN-100™ Transponder flown on NASA’s IRIS and LADEE scientific missions, the μXBT™ X-Band Transponder is designed and rigorously tested to provide high performance under the extreme environmental conditions of space. The μXBT is a low SWaP, radiation-hardened radio with a downlink data rate of up to 6 Mbps, and it includes a Solid State Power Amplifier (SSPA).
