Compact 98cm dual-band (Ka and Ku) transmit/receive antenna system for economical VSAT deployment.
98cm Ka/Ku RxTx Class I Antenna System
Compact 98cm dual-band (Ka and Ku) transmit/receive antenna system for economical VSAT deployment.
Description
This is a small-aperture VSAT terminal antenna for cost-effective, high-performance service in both Ka-band and Ku-band. It provides fine azimuth and elevation adjustment for precise pointing and meets or exceeds Class I regulatory antenna-pattern requirements. It mounts directly with SpaceBridge's 3W/4W Ku- and Ka-band transceivers via a bracket to form a complete outdoor unit. Deployment options include a tri-mast mount (fits virtually any surface), 2x30m color-coded RG-6 coax cabling, and a 4'x4' non-penetrating roof mount. It targets enterprise/broadband VSAT, cellular backhaul, and mobility/UAV satcom applications needing a compact, economical, dual-band terminal antenna.
