Qorvo®, a leading global provider of connectivity and power solutions, today announced two new hybrid power doubler amplifiers that strengthen its DOCSIS® 4.0 portfolio for broadband cable networks. These devices are optimized for downstream operations up to 1.8 GHz and support the industry’s move toward Unified DOCSIS and smart amplifier architectures that offer greater visibility, efficiency and adaptability in hybrid fiber-coax (HFC) systems.

Qorvo’s QPA3311 and QPA3316 provide higher total composite power (TCP) and improved signal integrity to reduce cascade requirements and enhance end-of-line performance, reducing infrastructure costs by eliminating the need for costly booster amps.

“Our new power doublers help our customers address the industry’s transition to more intelligent and adaptive HFC deployments and the evolution to “smart amplifiers” and Unified DOCSIS,” said Bob Simmers, senior marketing manager for Qorvo’s Infrastructure business. “By offering flexible power options and exceptional output, Qorvo enables the design of intelligent amplifier systems that can scale with DOCSIS 4.0 requirements while improving overall network efficiency.”

QPA3311 and QPA3316 offer distinct output profiles to support a range of node and amplifier deployment needs.



The devices are built using Qorvo’s proven GaN25 process and are manufactured at the company’s world-class facility in Nuremberg, Germany. The QPA3311 and QPA3316 are released to production and will be featured at ANGA COM 2025, June 3-4 in Cologne, Germany.

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.
