Aerostream Ku-Band Transceiver
The Wavestream Gilat AeroStream transceiver offers unmatched efficiency and performance for the challenging airborne environment. AeroStream products meet the requirements of RTCA/DO-160G, Boeing, Airbus and ARINC specifications for commercial aircraft as well as MIL-STD requirements for military aircraft. AeroStream incorporates Wavestream’s next generation Spatial Power Advantage technology to provide high power output with greater efficiency and reliability for airborne satellite communications system applications.
High Efficiency
AeroStream products are biased for Class AB operation, drawing less power when backed off to reduce thermal loading and ensure higher MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) for greater reliability and lower lifecycle costs.
Versatile
The AeroStream transceiver provides the necessary interfaces to work seamlessly with leading modems and Antenna Control Units (ACU) to provide a convenient turnkey solution.
