About

The Optical Telecommunication Terminal serves as a ground segment component for organizing communication channels with satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), including microsatellites. It is designed for both mobile and stationary performance, allowing for placement on building roofs and other non-specialized objects. The terminal offers a guaranteed service life of 25 years and an estimated production/delivery time of 12 months. While it does not have flight qualification, it offers the possibility to be adapted to customer requirements. Key features include a communication range of not less than 3000 km (including atmospheric section), data transfer rates from 0.1 to 10 Gbit/s, and a viewing angle of 360 degrees in azimuth and 120 degrees in elevation. It also supports the possibility of inclusion in a quantum cryptography channel via a transmitter. The terminal has a weight of 300 kg, consumes 600 W, and operates on a power supply voltage of 24-36 V. Its clear aperture is 155, and it boasts a target tracking speed of 2 degrees/s.
