Flexibility
The Norsat Rover Multi-Band is a flexible system that can be customized to suit your needs. Each system is equipped with a built-in inclinometer, compass, GPS, spectrum analyzer, configurable indoor unit (with various baseband and modem combinations), and the Norsat LinkControl software. The system’s carbon fiber segmented antenna and tripod superstructure is available with multiple SSPA options (2W, 4W, 6W, 8W, 10W, 20W, 40W, 60W), several frequencies (Ku, Ka, X), various packaging choices (Mil.
spec backpack, rolling transit case), and many power options (A/C, generator, vehicle, and battery).
Assisted Acquisition
The Norsat Rover Multi-Band is equipped with industry leading satellite acquisition technology. The Satellite Acquisition Assistant (SAA) offers ‘built-in intelligence’ and provides highly advanced features in a user-friendly interface. The Rover Multi-Band uses an intuitive alignment wizard to guide the operator through the complete satellite acquisition process. Designed with the end user in
mind, the Rover™ Multi-Band can be operated by users with minimal training in even the harshest environments.
