GREENSBORO, N.C., May 13, 2026 – Qorvo® (Nasdaq: QRVO), a leading global provider of connectivity and power solutions, today introduced a new 1.8 GHz DOCSIS® 4.0 power doubler hybrid amplifier that increases usable downstream RF output at 24V, enabling extended-spectrum network and Full Duplex upgrades without exceeding established platform power limits.

As operators extend hybrid fiber-coax (HFC) networks to 1.8 GHz, improving modulation margin at the end-of-line has become increasingly complex. Raising RF output has traditionally required higher DC power or additional booster amplifiers, increasing cost and operational burden. Qorvo’s new QPA3312 hybrid amplifier addresses this challenge by raising usable RF output while maintaining existing 24V architectures and housing constraints.

“Operators want stronger 1.8 GHz performance, but they cannot exceed the power limits of existing amplifier platforms,” said Bob Simmers, senior marketing manager for Qorvo’s Infrastructure business. “This new power doubler enables measurable performance gains at 24V, allowing OEMs and MSOs to strengthen DOCSIS 4.0 networks without redesigning their infrastructure.”

By preserving established 24V power frameworks and proven SOT-115J hybrid designs, the QPA3312 enables amplifier and node manufacturers to differentiate their DOCSIS 4.0 solutions while maintaining mechanical, thermal and electrical continuity across existing product lines.

For operators, the device improves end-of-line signal quality and reduces cascade complexity while maintaining current power infrastructure. The result is stronger network performance without additional power burden.

Built using Qorvo’s proven GaN25 process and manufactured at the company’s facility in Nuremberg, Germany, the QPA3312 is sampling to key customers and will be featured at ANGA COM 2026, May 19–21 in Cologne.

As the technology leader in solutions that enable HFC architecture, Qorvo continues to expand its DOCSIS 4.0 product offering with the broadest range of hybrid amplifiers, MMICs, control products and equalizers supporting flexible network designs and fast, scalable upgrades.
