AvL's 60cm Manual FlyAway Antenna at Eutelsat

AvL's 60cm Manual FlyAway antenna is our latest antenna to receive Eutelsat type-approval for operation on KA-SAT.  ​This lightweight and compact antenna has a robust 8-piece carbon fibre reflector and a manually-pointed positioner with fine tuning for Az and El.  The antenna can be assembled and operational in less than 5 minutes, packs into a small airline carry-on compliant backpack, and weighs less than 16 kg when packed.
 
This compact grab-and-go antenna received approval using a Ka-band TRIA feed and Eutelsat’s Tooway modem. The antenna received approval with manual pointing, but has optional motorization.  Other options include interchangeable X- and Ku-band feeds in addition to Ka-band (LP and CP) feeds.
