GatesAir expands its lower power transmission line with Flexiva GX, a new FM analogue transmitter line that provides radio customers with the strongest power-to-size ratio for power levels up to 10kW.
Using the latest LDMOS technology, GatesAir has packed exceptional power density into a compact 5RU chassis, providing broadcasters with powerful 5kW and 10kW FM solutions that deliver a remarkable overall efficiency rating up to 76%.
The engineering breakthroughs in power density, efficiency and footprint are made possible through the Flexiva GX’s design, enhanced by GatesAir’s third-generation PowerSmart high-efficiency transmitter architecture.
Broadcasters refreshing existing FM infrastructure for large regional and national networks represent a key customer base. Flexiva GX transmitters support N+1 configurations, enabling large national network operators to build flexible and consolidated transmission sites that meet stringent uptime requirements.
The Flexiva GX Series also carries traditional GatesAir solid-state design benefits forward, including modular, redundant transmitter designs with hot-swappable power supplies.
The transmitters provide auto-switching inputs, with dual AES (including AES192), dual composite and analogue left/right audio inputs. Options include a GPS receiver to support SFN functionality, and GatesAir’s new Intraplex IP Link 100e module. The latter integrates within Flexiva GX transmitters, enabling direct receipt of contributed FM content.
