FlyNews™ PFA-150 The FlyNews™ PFA-150 is a fully motorized, dual optic offset, 3-axis autopointing antenna system with a 4 segment, 150cm diamond shaped reflector. With the PAC-450 antenna controller, the system offers instant high performance, plug and play broadcasting. Anywhere you are, anywhere you go.
The FlyNews™ PFA-150 antenna systems is a compact, ultra lightweight, high performance antenna made entirely out of carbon fibre. The quick-install feedhorn system is available for Ku-Band. The antenna system includes a 6 segment reflector and a foldable elliptical sub reflector together with feed-arm. The reflector shows very low sidelobe levels and a high cross-polarisation rejection. A 3-axis positioner provides full rotation and is entirely backlash free in elevation, azimuth and polarization axis. The disassembled parts of the antenna are transported in 2 specially designed compact travel cases, which are lightweight and IATA compliant. These features make the FlyNews™ PFA-150 antenna system an ideal choice for fast newsgathering (SNG) or VSAT applications such as Video/Media Exchange via Satellite, disaster relief, emergency communication, corporate networks or military satcom.
The antenna system is controlled by the PAC450 AC unit, a smart antenna controller with a very quick autopointing capability, which can track satellite orbits, even with high inclination angles. Its acquisition speed and “one touch” operation make it very easy to operate and ideal for instant, reliable broadcasting under any condition and in any environment. The PALS AUX 1000 Flyaway System Accessories Kit with a soft bag for electronics, waveguide runs & kits, A/V monitors, LNB, cables and cable drums for a proper operation.
