SX-430
Wideband SDR Transceiver
The SX-430 is a high-performance software-defined radio transceiver, ideal for Cyber, EW, SIGINT, and Comms applications across air, land, and sea platforms. Operating up to 18 GHz frequency with 160 MHz instantaneous analog bandwidth (narrower bandwidths achievable via digital processing), it supports data rates up to 40 Gbps. Aligned with SOSA™ and CMOSS technical standards, it offers powerful onboard FPGA resources for real-time processing in secure, separated enclaves, enhancing security certification and mission flexibility. Built on Xilinx's UltraScale+™ MPSoC, it ensures robust performance and reliability in challenging environments.
