iRF Solutions

Amphenol iRF Solutions is a leading designer and manufacturer of modular RF converters, tuners, and integrated front-end signal processing products for high-performance defense electronics. Built from the ground up for embedded, open-architecture systems, iRF’s product line includes digitizer-ready downconverters, wideband tuners, and multi-channel RF modules for 3U and 6U VPX platforms.

iRF modules are optimized for Electronic Warfare (EW), SIGINT, and Radar applications, providing coverage from 100 MHz to 26.5 GHz with wide instantaneous bandwidths, high dynamic range, and low phase noise. Many models support second-Nyquist sampling, coherent multi-channel operation, and seamless integration with RFSoC and ADC platforms.

All products are engineered and manufactured at iRF’s U.S.-based facility and are designed to meet the stringent environmental, thermal, and signal integrity requirements of deployed military systems.
