CPI SAT C240MT 2.4M Trailer Mounted Satcom VSAT Terminal

C240MT 2.4M Trailer Mounted Satcom VSAT Terminal

The CPI SAT (formerly GD Satcom Technologies & Prodelin) C240MT commercial 2.4-meter Trailer Mounted Satcom Terminal is designed for worldwide transmit and receive operation in C, X, Ku and Ka-band. This mobile terminal consists of a 2.4-meter tracking antenna mounted on a rugged chassis equipped with a generator and environmentally controlled rack enclosure. This configuration results in a low-weight tow package with superior features and high performance under wind-loading conditions.

Precision Reflector

The accurate reflector surface provides exceptionally low sidelobe and cross-polarization performance well within INTELSAT and EUTELSAT requirements. The interchangeable feeds are palletized for quick, easy removal and replacement, allowing the end-user to effectively change frequency bands in the field within minutes. HPAs can be boom mounted for minimal WG losses per the customer’s requirements. The onboard generator provides power to the UPS, ECU, and all the rack-mounted equipment located in the 38 rack-unit electronics enclosure. The entire terminal can be controlled through the M&C system as part of the 323T tracking controller (optional). The commercial 323T ACU provides auto-acquisition and several optional tracking algorithms including adaptive tracking in high winds.
