KaRLO
- Ka systems offer the promise of higher
bandwidths, faster data, and smaller,
lighter terminals. However, conventional
LNBs tend to be large and heavy, causing
increased requirements in size and weight of
supporting structures, and require heavier
motors to move the increased mass. As well,
mobile applications mean exposure to
vibration, temperature, and moisture
extremes. Electronics at the feed then
require stringent environmental housings to
protect delicate circuits and assure stable
operation under extreme environmental
conditions. Orbital solves these problems by
cutting the LNB in half and moving sensitive
components off the feed to a more secure
position position behind the dish - leaving
the the low noise and lightweight LNA, mixer
and IF amp in a small, secure package at the
feed. Now, the antenna is much lighter and
much more agile. KaRLO meets or exceeds the
following standards: 1. MIL-STD-188-164A
Interoperability of SHF Satellite
Communications Earth Terminals. 2. FAA RTCA
DO-160E Environmental Conditions and Test
Procedures for Airborne Equipment. 3.
MIL-STD-810F. 4. Meet RoHS requirements. |
