Global Skyware 1.2m Ku Band Receiver Transmitter (Rx & Tx) Antenna System

The 1.2m Class I RxTx Antenna is a rugged commercial grade product suitable for the most demanding applications.

The precision Az/El mount is constructed from heavy-gauge steel to provide a rigid support to the reflector. The Az/El mount secures the antenna to any 73-76 mm (2.88”-3.00”) mast and prevents slippage in high winds. A specially formulated powder paint process offers excellent protection from weather-related corrosion. The antenna features a unique feed which provides cross-pol performance that exceeds industry standards.

Features:

• ISO 9001:2008 Certificate of Registration
• All materials comply with EU directive No. 2011/95/EC (RoHS)
• One-piece thermoset-molded reflectorAvailable with Ku-band copol
  or cross-pol feeds.
• Galvanized 19 mm (.75 in) O.D. feed support legs for lightweight outdoor units (ODU’s).
• Plated hardware for maximum corrosion resistance.
• Az/El mount includes both elevation and azimuth fine adjustments.
• Class I system designed for typical lightweight Ku-band RF Electronics.
• Marinised version option is finished in a 2-part Epoxy paint on all 316 stainless steel hardware and galvanised steel fabricated components.
