The GCS 251iC is a complete satellite modem system developed on an embedded iDirect™ platform. It allows any L-Band communications system to utilize the iDirect™ modem without the need of conventional IFL cables or spectrum analyzers. By placing the iDirect™ modem in a ruggedized weatherproof enclosure with ECU, the unit is able to be located outdoors. Therefore, only a short coax run is needed to connect to the BUC & Booster. The connection to the indoor data equipment is via a single CAT5 cable(much lighter than the coaxial cables normally needed). The GCS-251ic is packaged in a Carry-on type rugged tote case. The GCS-251ic integrates an internal computer, antenna controller, tuning meter, Ethernet switch and iDirect™ Infinity modem. The GCS-251ic allows an operator to point and peak any satellite system without external equipment.
