Description
The Patriot single and dual optics antennas are excellent for VSAT applications and hold an Intelsat Type-Approval.  With a past history of use in high quality SNG (Satellite News Gathering) applications, the 1.8m antenna provides a level of surface accuracy, rugged stiffness, and precision not often found in similarly priced products.  The stamping process that produces the solid metal reflector results in superior surface accuracy and repeatability. The steel back structure adds strength and stability to the system and keeps the installation process simple.

The Navigator Style Azimuth and Elevation cap reduces pointing errors during installation, allowing more accurate boresighting on the satellite. Increased pointing accuracy leads to greater link availability.  Special packaging techniques are employed for every system shipped to protect the surface of the dish.
