Thrane & Thrane TT-3008B Big Dish Antenna

Thrane’s Capsat® Messenger terminal combined with the robust TT-3008B antenna, now allows for a complete weatherproof fixed solution at a remote site. You may install this system in connection with the sites PABX system, and not even know you are communicating via a high speed satellite connection.

You will be using the Global Area Network (GAN) service offered by Inmarsat, to cover both your high speed and low speed data needs. The 64 kbps ISDN rate is suited for all Internet applications, video conference as well as other bandwidth intensive applications. At the same time you have access to the inexpensive low speed Mini-M services for voice, fax, and data.

Whilst maintaining the user friendliness of the Capsat® Messenger, you still have access to a vast range of applications via the many interfaces built into the terminal. At the same time, if everything else fails and you lose complete power, you still have an integrated telephone and battery, so you never lose the ability to stay in touch.

This solution is well suited as a back up system, not only to other satellite systems such as VSAT, but also to the land based infrastructure.

Maintaining communication capabilities is becoming extremely important: many of our customers can not afford to have a branch or site down even for a few hours.

The Capsat® Messenger with the TT-3008B antenna is the answer to this concern. It is simple to swap between the two Capsat® Messenger antennas, so that surveys and observations can be reported immediately via the portable antenna and upon returning to the site, a more detailed report can be sent back via the fixed antenna.

The same terminal works with both types of antenna without any hardware modification. The TT-3008B can be positioned up to 200 metres away from the main unit. The frame mount construction makes it very easy to deploy because the pointing angle of the antenna can be easily adjusted. It is also delivered with brackets and hinges so it can be installed on a pole. The frame mount version is well proven and has been installed in thousands of locations around the world.

The antenna is delivered in a lightweight and sturdy bag, so it can be easily transported from one remote site to another.
