Kratos 5.6 Meter Ka Earth Station Antenna

Kratos 5.6 Meter Earth Station Antenna

Like all Kratos earth station antennas, this antenna system is used worldwide in broadcast applications and high density data, voice and communications networks. The Kratos 5.6 meter earth station antenna features a dual reflector Gregorian optics system and close- tolerance manufacturing techniques. This combination provides extremely accurate surface contour resulting in exceptionally high gain and closely controlled pattern characteristics. Kratos earth station antennas provide maximum durability with minimal maintenance.

The unique design of the 5.6 meter Ka-band pedestal eliminates the need for critical foundation orientation. Each pedestal is engineered with self aligning bearings of the elevation pivots. In addition, azimuth/elevation anti-backlash ball jacks are incorporated to provide smooth positioning of the antenna. The electrical performance and exceptional versatility provides the ability to configure the antenna with your choice of linearly- or circularly- polarized 2- or 4- port combining networks.

That versatility is provided at the time of initial purchase, as well as in the future, as your satellite communication requirements evolve. The 5.6 meter Ka-band antenna is offered with two hub sizes to accommodate a variety of RF electronics integration packages.
