1. Overview of 2.4m Flyaway Antenna
Antesky ATCF-240C/ATCF-240K 2.4M manual flyaway antenna, is newly launched and in great demand for customer who requires receive and transmit signal in emergency communication. Our antenna can meet the requirements of CCIR 580-6 , ASIASAT and INTELSAT.
It is widely used in temporary or frequently changing installation sites, or in where no regular communication means on the ground like in earthquake disaster relief, TV broadcasting, maritime affairs, exploration, meteorology and other emergency communication fields as easy to carry and quick deploy. This 2.4m manual flyaway antenna supports multimedia service like voice, data, audio and video, and wide area network access in a limited time.
This 2.4m manual flyaway antenna completed antenna system includs reflectors, pedestal structure and feed network. Panel is made up of more than 90% carbon fiber composite material with light weight and high surface accuracy of 0.3 RMS. Antenna backup support structures and turntable pedestal are made of special materials with high stiffness. This compact structure can ensure the strength under the heavy wind condition. The dual-reflector feed structure is updated to realize quick installation and replacement with excellent electrical performance. Meanwhile, the 9 petals of panels can be installed repeatedly with high precision. Two persons can finish installation within 20 minutes and no tools required. The whole system can be packed in 7 customized rigid aviation cases to prevent the components damaging during transportation.
