The ZHL-20W-13X+ is a high-power coaxial amplifier designed for 50 Ω systems across 20 to 1000 MHz, delivering 20 W output power with a gain of 46 to 55 dB and gain flatness of ±1.8 dB. It operates from a 24 V DC supply, drawing 2.8 A, and includes automatic thermal shutdown. The device features an input VSWR of 1.7:1 and output VSWR of 2.5:1, with an output third-order intercept point of +50 dBm. It is housed in a CP641 case with SMA connectors and measures 120.65 mm × 111.13 mm × 106.17 mm. The unit operates from -20°C to +65°C and requires an external heat sink with thermal resistance no greater than 0.38°C/W to maintain base plate temperature below 85°C. Performance data is provided for 24 V operation.
