Additional Information:

The XPDR-2150 series transponder is the next generation of C-band transponders. It is used primarily to augment and enhance the tracking capabilities of C-band ground radars.

The unit provides 50 watts of pulsed RF output with typical power consumption of 5 watts, giving this product line one of the lowest current draws in the industry today.

The XPDR-2150 is backward-compatible so that its form-factor matches legacy systems. There is no need to replace existing technology. The transponder is programmable with the TTCWare configuration application or over a serial communications port using terminal emulation. An optional RS-485 multi-drop interface is also available.
