GigaSat has launched a new range of fully integrated solid state BUC’s (Block Up Conductor) to complement its FA-120 and FA-100 flyaway systems. The “Turtle Power Modules”, so named due to their unique mechanical construction with a molded carbon fibre shell, are available in X-band, Ku-band, Ka-band and even dual band (i.e. Ku/X or Ku/Ka in one housing). Linear output power options up to 40W and direct “no cable” interfacing to the antenna feed provides ultra high efficiency, making the integrated system package ideal for rapid deployment of broadband data connectivity.
The turtles include GigaSat’s innovative cross-site multiplexing system. This allows for a complete outdoor terminal including the motorized and auto pointing antenna to be powered and controlled over a dual coax cable up to 100m in length. The terminal is complemented by GigaSat’s established “Bantam” indoor unit, which incorporates a 1 to 20Mbps modem and a full function antenna controller in a compact half 19” rack width package. – Hertfordshire, United Kingdom
