PDA-180

The PALS PDA-180 redefines mobile satellite communications, offering instant access to Ku, Ka, X, and C-band frequencies. This 1.8m drive-away antenna system is engineered for mission-critical scenarios where reliability is non-negotiable, making it the ultimate solution for Digital Satellite News Gathering (DSNG), disaster relief operations, emergency communications, and secure corporate networks.

Precision is at the core of the PDA-180's design. Its prime focus reflector and meticulously engineered surface ensure exceptionally low sidelobes and superior cross-polar performance, guaranteeing a powerful, clean, and interference-free signal. The system is equipped with a robust three-axes positioner that delivers full, seamless rotation with zero backlash in elevation, azimuth, and polarization. This flawless mechanical operation ensures pinpoint pointing accuracy and maintains a rock-solid lock on your target satellite, even in challenging conditions.

Experience rapid deployment and unparalleled reliability with the PDA-180, the industry's choice for professionals who cannot afford to lose the signal.
