EARTH STATION ANTENNA
8.1 Meter ESA
Like all ASC Signal earth station antennas, the 8.1Meter Earth Station
Antenna provides high gain and exceptional pattern characteristics.
This antenna system is designed to address the stringent requirements
of both the television broadcast industry and telecommunications
network operators who demand unsurpassed flexibility and electrical
performance in high-quality, cost-effective, and reliable packages.
The 8.1m antenna is offered with a manual or motorizable mount
allowing 225 degrees of total pointing coverage in multiple
overlapping continuous travel segments of 45 degrees. This antenna
can be provided with NGC controlled mount motorization and/or the
ASC Signal Sub-reflector tracker (SRT) for high throughput Ka-band
applications. The NGC control system combined with the motorized
mount and SRT provides pointing and tracking capability on up to 6
axes of movement.
The electrical performance and exceptional versatility provides
the ability to configure the antenna with your choice of combining
network. That versatility is provided at the time of initial purchase,
as well as in the future, as your satellite communication requirements
evolve.
This antenna system is used worldwide in broadcast applications
and high density data, voice and communications networks. The
ASC Signal 8.1 meter earth station antenna features a computeroptimized dual reflector Gregorian optics system and close-tolerance
manufacturing techniques.
This combination provides extremely accurate surface contour
resulting in exceptionally high gain and closely controlled pattern
characteristics. ASC Signal earth station antennas provide maximum
durability with minimal maintenance.
Features
• Rugged aluminum and steel construction
• Superior Pointing Accuracy
• Advanced Gregorian optics
• 3 Year Warranty on all Structural Components
• Monopulse Tracking Capabilities for Ka-Band
• Deep Equipment Enclosure
