A Ka-band hybrid-scan terminal for vehicles and trains: two-axis electronic scanning combined with two-axis automatic mechanical drive tracks HTS GEO, MEO and LEO satellites without gaps — band switching in 3 ms keeps the link alive across constellation handovers.
Highlights
One terminal works across high-throughput GEO, MEO and LEO constellations — switch bands in 3 ms as your satellite plan changes.
Two-axis electronic scan plus two-axis automatic mechanical drive: unlimited azimuth rotation with a 10–90° hybrid pitch envelope.
Re-acquires the satellite in under 15 s after short blockouts (<5 min) and under 25 s after long ones — tree cover, overpasses and tunnels stop being outages.
Applications
Vehicle SOTM · Train rooftop connectivity · Government and emergency fleets · Multi-orbit field operations

FAQ
Does it really work across GEO, MEO and LEO?
Yes — the manufacturer rates it for high-throughput GEO, MEO and LEO constellations, and the 3 ms band switching supports constellation handover without dropping the link.
What happens when the satellite is blocked?
After a blockout of up to 5 minutes it re-acquires in under 15 seconds; longer blockouts re-acquire in under 25 seconds (manufacturer specification).
What platforms is it for?
Road vehicles and train rooftops — azimuth rotation is unlimited and the 10–90° pitch envelope covers the attitude envelope of road and rail platforms.
