General Dynamics SATCOM Technologies 2.4M SM-LT Mobile Antenna
The General Dynamics SATCOM Technologies (formerly VertexRSI) Lightweight
2.4-meter Mobile Antenna is designed for worldwide transmit
and receive operation in C, X, Ku and Ka-band. This mobile
antenna consists of a carbon fiber composite reflector and
back beam mounted on a cable-driven, elevation-overazimuth
positioning system. This results in a low-weight
antenna with superior stiffness and high performance under
wind loading conditions.
The unique shape and the accurate reflector surface
provide exceptionally low sidelobe and cross-polarization
performance well within INTELSAT and EUTELSAT
requirements. Repeatability is maintained with precision
registration of the three reflector segments. A one-piece
reflector is also available. The interchangeable feeds are
palletized for quick, easy removal and replacement, allowing
the end-user to effectively change frequency bands in the
field within minutes.
