The TP120 Tri-Sat
The ‘Tri-Sat’ range of antenna systems are renowned due to their compact size, light weight and powerful performance having been designed to excel in today’s ever demanding satellite communications industry.
The user friendly modular design allows for simple, fast and accurate satellite acquisition either as a manually controlled mount or as a fully auto-acquisition motorised mount controlled either locally via a touch screen or remotely via an ethernet port.
The novel light weight and sturdy tri-pod design houses a truly versatile HPA cradle which can accommodate a wide range of third party HPA’s up to 400W in X, C, Ku and Ka-Bands, neatly doing away with the long lengths of fragile flexible waveguide normally associated with flyaway systems.
The clever design of the tri-pod mount also means that other 3rd party antennas can be fitted allowing existing equipment to be cost effectively upgraded.
The main reflector is manufactured from high quality carbon fibre and is supplied in six easily assembled petals that employ a revolutionary spherical dowel locking mechanism.
The revolutionary design of the complete fly- away system allows for the ‘Tri-Sat’ to be transported in two easily manageable carry cases under 32kg that can be checked onto any commercial aircraft making the ‘Tri-Sat’ a totally flexible fly-away system.
Whilst the antenna and transmitter assembly must be exposed to the elements, the auto-acquisition controller and the test and monitoring baseband package can be located remotely as the option includes 5m & 25m cables with longer lengths available.
