Kymeta Hawk u8 GEO UT

Making Mobile Global 

The new kymeta™ u8 antenna is ready for integrators to create custom mobile satellite terminals to meet their customers’ unique needs for connectivity while in motion. Leveraging the revolutionary software-defined, electronic beam steering technology, the u8 antenna has been re-engineered for full coverage of the ku band, increased antenna performance, and extended environmental coverage. All this while maintaining low power operation for seamless integration into mobile platforms.

Electronically Steered Antenna

Designed For Mobility Software-Defined, Reconfigurable, And Updatable, The U8 Satellite Antenna Operates Over The Complete Ku Band

Designed For Mobility

Low profile and aerodynamic, the u8 antenna can be easily integrated into terminals designed for mobile platforms.

Low Power

With native DC operation, the u8 antenna requires very low power to point and track while on the move.

Flexible And Modular

With support for multi-waveform openamip compatible modems, the u8 antenna can be integrated into many unique system configurations.

Key Features
