We’re excited to share that BHE will be back at Space Tech Expo 2025 – Europe’s leading exhibition for the space industry.
As international demand continues to grow for high-reliability RF subsystems, our team is ready to showcase our latest technical innovations.
If you’re attending, don’t miss the chance to stop by Booth F29 to discuss your mission’s specific RF requirements with the engineers who built this hardware.
At BHE, we specialize in the design and delivery of custom-engineered RF and microwave subsystems for space, defense, and critical communications applications.
Our team of 140+ dedicated RF professionals focuses on the precision and technical depth that large-scale operations often lack. Our custom and modular subsystems are designed and manufactured in-house to perform reliably, day after day, under pressure.
Are you looking for a robust solution that is:
With over 30 years of expertise, every solution reflects deep technical know-how. We can tackle niche challenges, from building a single Ka-band satellite transceiver to delivering rugged, tailored components for specific space deployments.
Our in-house design, manufacturing, and testing ensure meticulous quality control and reliable operation. This focused approach is why BHE equipment is trusted in 60+ countries and has contributed to projects ranging from Earth’s orbit to the surface of Mars.
We deliver single and redundant solutions known for their excellent noise figure (GaAs HEMT performance) across S-Q satcom bands.
Built for full outdoor deployment, our LNAs feature rugged sealing and comprehensive remote telemetry and control.
A complete 1:2 Redundant LNA system for Q-band ground stations requiring maximum uptime. This system is comprised of two BJEL10 LNA units (mounted on a BPBS15 LNA plate) and a 19” rack-mount indoor controller (BJEI10) with hot-swappable redundant power supplies.
Offering very low noise performance, the system is fully managed via Ethernet control and can be expanded to support two additional LNAs for tracking.
Talk to our team at the booth about the BJEL13's performance data.

Our SSPA systems provide 25W to 2000W of linear output power in S-X satcom bands.
We offer configurations for any architecture (indoor single, outdoor single, outdoor redundant) fully supported by remote M&C via Ethernet.
Covering frequencies from S-band to Q- and Z-band, these units are designed for high stability and low phase noise.
They feature wideband IF bandwidth, making them adaptable to diverse mission profiles as indoor rackmount or IP67-rated outdoor units.
Engineered for the most demanding tracking and telemetry applications, these converters provide Excellent Gain and Phase Balance and Low Group Delay Variation, ensuring phase coherence even in multi-channel configurations.
When signal purity is paramount, our block converters deliver Outstanding Phase Noise and Spurious Performance, ensuring a clean signal path for your critical data.
Ideal for applications where space and power are at a premium.
Our LNBs are characterized by their small size and low power consumption, with multi-band options available.
Essential for simulating satellite links (S- to Ku-band), our TLTs feature a programmable gain feature and are available in both indoor and outdoor versions for comprehensive system verification.
BHE was selected to design and build the Master Reference Oscillator (MRO) for the ESA EnVision program , a mission selected to study Venus.
As a crucial component for the on-board Radio Science Experiment (RSE) , the MRO generates a highly accurate and stable signal for the spacecraft's deep space transponder.
This technology is essential for the RSE's objective: to study Venus' gravitational field, atmosphere, and ionosphere with unprecedented precision.
Driven by the growing demands for communication solutions in the cislunar region , BHE developed and qualified an X-band Moon-Earth communication system and its related high-power amplifier.
The system includes a Transponder that collects and conditions data from cislunar space, converting it to X-band , and a High-Power Amplifier (HPA) that amplifies the downlink signal to be sent to Earth.
BHE participated in the upgrade of two 15m tracking SATCOM antennas at the GSOC (German Aerospace Center, DLR) facility in Weilheim.
We provided two S-band 2kW Smart Solid-State Power Amplifier (SSPA) systems for the upgrade. As a result, both upgraded antennas now have the capability to transmit up to 2kW of clean RF power each.
