SAWbird iO is a self-contained LNA module designed for capturing L-Band signals, like Inmarsat AERO and STD-C. It has a very high attenuation outside of the 60MHz bandpass region, centered around 1.542GHz, and a minimum of 20dB of gain within the bandpass region. Nominal current draw is only 30mA.
The SAWbird series contains 2 ultra-low-noise LNAs (single package), sandwiched around a custom-designed, high-performance SAW filter centered at the frequency of interest.
Bias tee power input is 3.0V-5.0V DC.
Our recommendation for use with this LNA is the NESDR SMArTee–which contains a bias-tee capable of powering the SAWbird+ iO module with bias power–but it is compatible with many available SDRs. If you wish to use an SDR that does not have DC output to power accessories, you will also require a separate bias tee module to power this device.

- SAWbird iO is a self-contained LNA module designed for capturing L-Band signals, particularly Inmarsat AERO and STD-C
- Each module contains 2 ultra-low-noise LNAs (single package), sandwiched around a custom-designed, high-performance SAW filter centered at 1542MHz
- The amplifier must be powered through the output SMA (bias-tee) and requires only ~30mA of current
- Though compatible with most SDRs with DC (bias-tee) power, we recommend use in conjunction with NESDR SMArTee (available on Amazon, item ID B079C4S2BT)
- Includes free male SMA to male SMA adapter. Full 2 year warranty and support direct through Nooelec!
