AvL Technologies Introduces 1.55m Tri-Band FlyAway for High-Wind Remote Production
AvL Technologies has released its new 1.55m Tri-Band High-Wind Manual FlyAway Terminal, an antenna designed for deployable communication in remote production and live event streaming. This product supports X-, Ku-, and Ka-band frequencies and is optimized for use in high-wind conditions.
Key Takeaways
- The 1.55m Tri-Band High-Wind Manual FlyAway Terminal supports X-, Ku-, and Ka-band frequencies and operates in high-wind conditions.
- The antenna is designed for quick deployment, with a set-up time of under 15 minutes, and packs into 1/4 ISU (four cases, each under 108 lbs).
- It is rated for operational wind speeds of 56 mph (25 m/s) with anchoring and 33 mph (15 m/s) without anchoring.
- Optional features include an upgradeable Terminal Interface Unit (TIU) for simplified pointing and various feed configurations (X-band, wideband Ka-band, MIL Ka).
Why It Matters
This new portable antenna addresses critical connectivity demands for remote and live streaming where reliable communication in challenging weather is paramount. Its multi-band and high-wind capabilities offer production companies greater flexibility in signal acquisition from diverse geographical locations. Industry stakeholders should monitor the adoption rate of such high-performance portable units, particularly in regions with unpredictable weather, as they could influence the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of decentralized content creation.
