About
NewSpace Systems’ LYNX X-Band Transmitter operates in the EESS X-band with a fully CCSDS-compliant data link and advanced VCM/ACM (Variable and Adaptive Coding/Modulation) to achieve excellent bandwidth and power efficiency. Output power is adjustable up to 2W supporting data rates up to 400 Mbps. Radiation hardness is rated at greater than 30 krad TID at component level, suitable for LEO missions. EMC compliance to MIL-STD-461F and a wide operating temperature range from -35 to +80°C make it suitable for demanding Earth observation constellations.
