Powerful 50W GaN Jammer Module 1800-2000MHz

The 50W GaN jammer module targeting 1800-2000 MHz is built for one thing: cutting drone video downlinks fast. It pumps out 47 dBm across the whole band with no retuning, and the whole unit weighs just 300 grams. If you are tired of heavy rack-mounted jammers that need constant attention, this module changes the math.

Why the 50W GaN Jammer Module Fits Drone Defense

Gallium nitride on silicon carbide delivers high power density without the thermal headaches of older LDMOS designs. Here, the AB-class bias keeps efficiency high while preserving waveform quality for noise modulation. The copper base pulls heat away from the die quickly, so you can run it hard in the field. According to GaN-on-SiC RF device data, this material set handles more stress with fewer reliability issues. No surprise it is showing up in counter-UAS gear everywhere.

Instantaneous Band Coverage Without Tuning

Forget band switching or mechanical tuning. This 50W GaN jammer module sweeps 1800-2000 MHz in one continuous shot. Output power sits steady at 47±1 dBm, and the SMA female ports keep a clean 50-ohm match. The analog scan speed is 270 KHz by default, fast enough to follow frequency-hopping video transmitters. That matters when a drone pilot switches channels mid-flight.

Built-In Noise Source and Modulation Options

No external waveform generator? No problem. The module ships with a high-speed noise source already on board. Feed it 28 V and a trigger, and you are jamming. If your mission needs something else, the factory can swap in a VCO, DDS, or SDR source. Custom scan speeds from 100 to 500 KHz are also available.

Thermal Performance of the 50W GaN Jammer Module

At 50 W output, heat is manageable but still needs respect. The copper carrier and thermal vias spread the load fast enough to keep the module running from -20°C to +65°C without derating. The 117×58×18 mm housing acts as a passive heatsink. In most drone-defense trailers or fixed towers, natural airflow is sufficient. No fans, no liquid cooling.

Compact Size and Mounting Flexibility

300 grams. That is the total weight. You can mount four of these modules in a 1U rack space and still have room for a power supply. The small footprint means it drops into portable cases, vehicle mounts, or pole-top enclosures without any structural reinforcement. SMA female connectors make cabling simple and low-profile.

Power Supply and Integration Notes

The module runs on 24-28 V DC and draws between 3.2 and 4.5 A at full power. Use a regulated supply rated for at least 5 A to be safe. Status LEDs for power, over-voltage, and over-temperature give you instant visual feedback. Internal bias sequencing means no negative rail needed.

Reliability and Customization

Every 50W GaN jammer module goes through load-pull and thermal cycling before it leaves the factory. The AB-class bias network is protected against brief output mismatches, but a proper 50-ohm load is always recommended. Most custom orders—different scan speeds, modulation sources, or connector types—ship in five to seven business days. Field return rates sit under 0.3% over 18 months.

Replacing Bulky Jammers

For drone video downlink disruption, this module delivers serious RF power in a package that disappears into your system. Compare it to older solid-state or tube-based jammers, and the weight and size savings are obvious. The 50W GaN jammer module is not just smaller—it is easier to cool, easier to power, and easier to deploy.
