Av-Comm 4.5m C Band Inclined Orbit Antenna System

Description

Our Av-Comm 4.5m C Band Inclined Orbit Antenna System has been designed to provide a reliable and cost effective solution for inclined orbit tracking applications. Our solution utilises a high performance 4.5m reflector manufacturer by Suman Satellite Group and is integrated with a Antenna Control Unit (ACU) manufactured by Research Concept in the USA. Our solution an be configured for use in C Band or Ku Band and can support tracking via Step, Memory, or TLE methods.

Our Av-Comm 4.5m C Band Inclined Orbit Antenna System is designed for teleport and uplink providers who require accurate and reliable antenna positioning required for inclined orbit tracking operations. The antenna system can also be used as motorised system allow for fast and accurate positioning of the antenna between satellites.

Our Av-Comm 4.5m C Band Inclined Orbit Antenna Systems are integrated in our Sydney facility and can be dispatched to customers anywhere in the world. Our system can be retrofitted to older fixed Suman 4.5m antenna systems allowing customers to re-use their existing infrastructure and reduce costs.

Additionally, for customers with existing satellite antennas fitted with obsolete or un-supported positioning systems Av-Comm offers a consulting service to integrate other antenna systems with the Research Concepts range of antenna controllers. Av-Comm has recently completed an upgrade of four 3.7m S Band antenna system for the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, utilising their existing antenna infrastructure to provide cost effective and low risk technology refresh solution.
