Mantis MSAT
Man Portable Satellite Terminal
The easy to use, lightweight, highly portable,
Mantis MSAT satellite antenna enables you
to arrive at the scene, deploy and be up andrunning in as little as five minutes.
The design of the Mantis MSAT satellite
system allows for rapid deployment inhostile environments. The unit can be set-up
anywhere, providing secure and non-securedata and video transmissions. The unit
supports X, Ku and Ka-band configurations,ensuring worldwide coverage at all times.
Frequency band swaps are completed infield, in under a minute.
The Mantis MSAT is available with a 65, 90
or 120 cm reflector. Options for an internal
modem or H.264/MPEG2 encoder, make theMSAT ideal for a variety of applications.
