AvL’s 1.35m Tri-Band Manual or Motorized Axi-Symmetric FlyAway Antenna is configurable as a manual point antenna, motorized auto-acquire antenna, manual integrated terminal or motorized auto-acquire integrated terminal. This ultra-lightweight antenna features an axi-symmetrical carbon fiber reflector, an all-in-one positioner system with integrated stabilizer legs, quick change snap-in-place tri-band feeds and RF kits, and ODU/modem and BUC/LNB integration. The antenna offers a compact two-case pack-up, which meets IATA requirements for carry-on or checked baggage. These antennas are easily assembled by one person in minutes.
The antenna is SMCD ARSTRAT certified at X- and Ka-bands. MIL-STD-810G is in process.

Manual configuration:
Pointing assist tool available.
Motorized configuration:
The AvL antenna control system is embedded on the antenna with a built-in compass, GPS and tilt compensation. The auto-acquisition controller is ethernet based, modem agnostic, OpenAMIP compliant, up-to-date with the latest cybersecurity, and operates with a web-based user interface that can be used on a phone, laptop or PC. The controller includes a satellite profile management system, a built-in AvL carrier/beacon receiver with an optional rack-mount interface panel or outdoor rated power supply and offers intelligent tracking and multi-orbit capabilities. Power requirements vary by antenna.
