CPI 1183 Series

CPI Antenna Technologies – 1.8m Receive-Only Antenna (C & Ku-Band)

Overview
CPI Antenna Technologies’ 1.8-meter antenna offers outstanding performance for receive-only (RxO) applications across C and Ku-Band frequencies. Designed to support a wide range of Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) needs, this antenna is ideal for commercial, fixed-site, and transportable installations. The antenna is available in a commercial-grade axisymmetric configuration, optimized for high-efficiency operation and reliable satellite reception.

The system meets or exceeds FCC and ITU-RS-580 sidelobe performance specifications and complies with Intelsat (A, B, C) and Eutelsat standards, ensuring compatibility with global satellite networks.
