SWAN-D v2 1.8M Terminal
ARSTRAT Certified
Description
The SWAN-D-v2 1.8M terminal is equipped with an ultra
lightweight 1.8 Meter Flyaway Motorized Auto-Acquire
Antenna (QDMA) that is designed for world-wide transmit
and receive operation in the Ku-band and Ka-Band frequency
range and provides secure and non-secure communications
to handle any IP application. This portable antenna consists of
a segmented carbon fiber reflector and motorized positioner
mount. This configuration results in an extremely low-weight
and packable antenna product with superior stiffness and
high performance under wind loading conditions.
The unique optical shape and accurate reflector surface
provide good sidelobe and excellent cross-polarization
performance. Repeatability is maintained with precision
registration of the nine-piece reflector segments and RF
components. The auto-acquire controller can find the correct
satellite and optimize co-pol and crosspol performance with
the push of a button. The terminal has a built in spectrum
analyzer and controlling the antenna is made easy through
the user-friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI).
SIPRnet and NIPRnet access options and IP voice and data
capabilities are made available through the Cisco 3825 router
and TurboIP network accelerator, Linkway IP modems provide
a means for multi-carrier and multi-rate TDMA traffic, and the
Intellipower UPS provides power conditioning and backup
power in case of shore power failure.
The SWAN-D-v2 1.8M terminal is delivered complete and
ready for immediate use in a total of eight ruggedized transit
cases – five outdoor unit (ODU) cases and three indoor unit
(IDU) cases – that are designed to be shipped via commercial
air cargo as well as military aircraft/ships/vehicles. The
terminal can be assembled and made operational in 30
minutes or less by two unit level war-fighters.
