| Panther Manpack VSATs |
Whether the need is combat support, intelligence, executive travel, special missions or homeland security, the Panther™ Manpack VSAT Terminals from L-3 GCS provide high-speed data communications for Internet, VPN connectivity, video transmission, surveillance, or reconnaissance. This highly rugged VSAT manpack type terminal is lightweight, highly portable, and offers Inmarsat BGAN-like simplicity for pointing and operation at significantly higher data rate transmission speeds over X-Band or Ku-band satellites.
The complete terminal is designed to be carried in a ‘rucksack’ or airline carry-aboard case. The smallest, most rugged VSAT terminal of its type, the Panther™ provides up to 512 kbps data rates for transmit and multi-Mbps for receive. The custom flat panel antenna design provides the operational simplicity of commercial satellite services (e.g. Inmarsat) while providing significantly higher throughput and lower operational cost.
