VISIT DB CONTROL AT AOC EUROPE 2025 TO EXPLORE ADVANCED EW TECHNOLOGIES AT BOOTH C4
Company Will Feature New SPDT High Power PIN switch with Frequency ranging between 1 to 8 GHz
Fremont CA – April 17, 2025 – dB Control, a supplier of mission-critical (often sole-source) products worldwide to military organizations, major defense contractors, and commercial manufacturers, will make its inaugural appearance at AOC Europe 2025 Symposium & Convention, taking place May 6-8 in Rome, Italy. Aligning with this year’s theme, “EMO in Transition – Learning from the Russian-Ukrainian War,” dB Control will present the latest innovations designed to address the rapidly evolving landscape of electromagnetic operations (EMO).
This year at AOC Europe in Booth C4, dB Control will showcase a range of its high-performance technologies designed to meet the growing needs of defense and military applications. Among the products featured will be the SPDT High Power PIN Switch, specialized components used in demanding RF and Microwave systems, capable of handling 200 watts CW (continuous wave).
Their high-power handling and fast switching characteristics make them ideal for several critical applications, including:
- RF Transmit/Receive (T/R) Switching in radar or communication systems where the same antenna is used for both transmitting and receiving.
- Antenna Selection / Redundancy Switching in base stations, military comms, or shipboard systems to switch between multiple antennas or systems.
- High-Power RF Testing Systems in automated test equipment (ATE) for high-power amplifiers, transmitters, or filters.
- Military and Aerospace Systems in ECM (Electronic Countermeasures), radar, or satellite uplink/downlink path routing.
