The aerospace and defense telemetry industries are increasingly recognizing the value of RF recording. Capturing the raw RF signals provides a fail-safe fallback strategy in the case of receiver misconfiguration or failed equipment downstream. Wideband Systems’ DRS9300X continues to deliver unparalleled RF recording capabilities to bring reliability and peace of mind to these industries, and the next evolution in this RF recording lineup was recently released… the DRS9300X-MB (multiband). The DRS9300X-MB provides the same feature set as the DRS9300X and provides the following additional features:
- Independent tuning for each channel, covering anywhere from 100MHz to 6GHz (P Band, L Band, S Band, and C Band spectrums).
- The center frequency for the input and output of a given channel can be independently selected.
- Each channel supports its own independent variable bandwidth ranging from 50MHz to 220MHz.
Key Technical Highlights
- Integrated RF/IF Interface Module: Independently configurable channels that can dynamically tune across P/L/S/C bands, ideal for capturing entire spectrums or polarization-specific signals.
- Wideband Coverage & High Data Rates: Maintains superior signal fidelity with 16-bit A/D and D/A converters, over 80 dB automatic gain control.
- High-Capacity Storage: Provides two removable diskbanks with up to 24TB of storage and a 10 Gbps sustained data rate record & playback.
- Direct IF Sampling: Improves linearity, increases sensitivity, and minimizes interference for cleaner signal quality.
- Flexible RF Output: Allows for the reconstructed RF output to be configured to follow the input signal or maintain a fixed output level, depending on mission requirements
- Comprehensive Timing Support: Timing interface support: IRIG-A/B/G, NASA‑36, External 1PPS and 10MHz Reference, Optional GPS Timing.
- Secure & Certified: FIPS-140/AES-256 encrypted storage, and ISO9001/AS9100D-compliant manufacturing.
Customers can trust in the reliability, efficiency, and innovation inherent in our Direct IF sampling solutions. Our team is dedicated to delivering cutting-edge solutions.
Why DRS9300X-MB Matters for Your Mission
With multiband support and ultra-high recording performance, the DRS9300X-MB ensures no signal is left unrecorded, no matter the frequency or modulation. Whether capturing entire RF landscapes, encrypted waveforms, or test pulse bursts, it delivers unmatched fidelity and timing precision.
Operators benefit not just from bandwidth and storage, but from the peace of mind that comes with true mission continuity. When a single missed signal can undermine months of testing, this multiband recorder ensures every RF moment is secured and accessible.
Built for Tomorrow’s Telemetry
As aerospace and defense systems continue to push higher frequencies and faster data rates, the DRS9300X-MB is built for the challenges ahead. With forward-compatible hardware and modular architecture, it adapts to emerging mission demands, providing operators with trusted performance, storage flexibility, and secure access to high-resolution RF data.
