About
The WiRan X-Band Diplexer, ordering code DXA, provides full-duplex communication for X-band data transmission and swarm radiocommunication in nanosatellites, covering 7145-7235 MHz (RX/uplink) and 8350-8500 MHz (TX/downlink) – a large part of the Earth Observation frequency band. It delivers rejection of TX-to-RX greater than 80 dB, insertion loss below 1.5 dB, and return loss better than 15 dB across all ports, handling over 15 W CW. Compliant with the CubeSat nanosatellite standard, DXA weighs 115 g, measures 96x96x14.5 mm, and uses SMP male connectors, offering full compatibility with WiRan’s X-Band antenna.
