Condition: For Parts or Not Working
This CPI VZC-6964A4 400W C-Band TWTA (Traveling Wave Tube Amplifier) is being sold as-is for parts or repair. The unit came from an earth station and is reported to be non-working. When powered, the fans spin, but the amplifier has not been bench-tested by us and is not guaranteed functional in any capacity. It is offered strictly for parts, salvage, or repair purposes. Cosmetically, the chassis shows the expected wear of fielded earth station equipment — some scuffing and marks on the enclosure are visible. The front panel controls, meter select dial, and indicator LED array appear intact. The rear panel connectors and cooling fan assembly appear undamaged. The interior components are visually complete as shown. Please review our full photo set carefully before purchasing, and contact us if you have any questions.
