The latest generation Hawkeye VSAT, the Hawkeye III, now gives the user the ability to switch between bands and apertures without having to purchase an additional system. The Hawkeye III terminals range in antenna size from 1.2M to 2.4M and utilize an enhanced ODU to eliminate reconfiguration and allow commonality of control. A simple swap of the feed boom assembly is all that is required to switch between bands. The Hawkeye™ series VSATs are proven reliable, lightweight and now even easier to use! This 1.6M VSAT Terminal delivers outstanding RF performance and reliability. Enhanced ODU
MIL-STD-810G tested Rugged design for outdoor usage Embedded iDirect EvolutioniConnex e800 modem with DVB-S2/ACM Embedded Ethernet switch 4 LAN ports DSL port option GCS ViewSAT GUI ViewSAT is specifically designed to monitor and control the Hawkeye and Cheetah series of VSAT terminals. The monitor and control is provided for the embedded iDirect modem, Antenna controller and some select BUC/SSPAs. Utilize one common GUI for all L3 across all platforms for easy operability. |
