CPI Series 1241 2.4 M Ku-Band Linear Rx/Tx VSAT Antenna

CPI Series 1241 2.4 M Ku-Band Linear Rx/Tx VSAT Antenna

The CPI Series 1241 2.4 M Ku-Band Linear Rx/Tx VSAT Antenna provides high-gain performance for commercial, government, broadcast, and enterprise satellite networks.

It operates across 10.70-12.75 GHz receive and 13.75-14.50 GHz transmit frequencies. Its four-piece SMC reflector and offset-fed prime-focus design deliver narrow beamwidth and greater than 30 dB on-axis cross-polarization isolation.

The antenna supports a WR75 interface or direct radio mounting and provides precise fine adjustment for fixed Ku-band earth station installations. Available now at Esatcom Inc.
