MICRO SAT LW, is a small lightweight portable on-the-move satellite terminal
solution. It is optimal for airborne connectivity, for compact installations, and for fully autonomous operation for transmit and receive of high bandwidth data rates of more than 10 Mbps.
With its unique design, Micro SAT the leading choice for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Its optimized form, size, and weight, enables it to be deployed as an integral part of the plane.
The Micro SAT family has options for both the KA and KU bands.
