Global Skyware 1.2m Ku Band Receiver Transmitter (Rx/Tx) Offset Antenna System with XPC Feed

The 1.2m Class II RxTx offset antenna with XPC feed is a rugged commercial grade product suitable for the most demanding applications.

The reflector is thermoset-molded for strength and surface accuracy. Molded into the rear of the reflector is a network of support ribs which strengthens the antenna and helps to sustain the necessary shape.

Features:

• All materials comply with EU directive No. 2002/95/EC (RoHS).
• Long focal length optics for low cross-pol performance.
• Fine azimuth and elevation adjustments.
• Available with Ku-band co–pol or cross–pol feeds.
• Galvanized 19 mm (.75”) O.D. side feed support legs and 51 mm (2”) O.D. lower feed support.
• Plated hardware for maximum corrosion resistance.
• Class II system designed for typical 2 W and 4 W Ku-band Block Up-Converters (BUCs).
