PDA-100-L

The PDA-100-L is the latest technology, compact, vehicle-mounted antenna system designed for professional mission critical applications such as high bit rate/high power news gathering SNG, disaster relief, corporate networks, communications and much more. 
The well-engineered antenna mount with tri-axis positioner provides full antenna rotation and polarization with zero-backlash in elevation and azimuth. The operation is extremely easy, with the antenna sensor kit option fitted with a PAC-500 indoor antenna control unit that provides truly user-friendly operation. One touch Auto-stow, Auto-deploy, and high precision Auto-peak features with fast-mid-slow motor speed control in all three axes make the antenna system a leader in its class. 
The PDA-100-L precision, accurate reflector surface and prime focus design provide remarkably low sidelobes, excellent and cross-polar performance. With offset reflector, GPS, compass and modem signal supported autopointing makes that drive-away possible to auto acquire satellite within 2 minutes.
