Product catalog summary
Overview
Orbit's Multi-Purpose Terminal (MPT) is a family of airborne stabilized VSAT systems designed to provide high-quality broadband communications via satellite across various airborne platforms. These systems are tailored to meet the demanding coverage requirements of military and government airborne satcom markets, supporting Ku, Ka, and X frequency bands.
Key Features
  • Multiband support with Mil-STD and/or RTCA DO160 F/G certification.
  • Low to none BUC-to-Antenna Insertion Loss.
  • Continuous cable-less polarization compensation for Ku-band.
  • Redundant communication ports supporting Ethernet/Serial/ARINC429 interfaces.
  • Signal RF tracking with either built-in receiver or third-party RSSI source.
  • Optional Integrated IMU Stabilization using various types of aircraft INS.
  • Optimized Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) characteristics.
Specifications
The MPT systems are available in different models (MPT 30, MPT 46, MPT 60, MPT 87) with varying antenna sizes and performance metrics. Key specifications include:
  • Frequency Range: Ku-band (Tx: 13.75-14.50 GHz, Rx: 10.95-12.75 GHz), Ka-band (Tx: 29.0-31.0 GHz, Rx: 19.2-21.2 GHz).
  • Antenna Sizes: Ranging from 31 cm to 87 cm in diameter.
  • G/T and EIRP values vary by model and frequency band, with higher values at higher altitudes.
  • Pedestal Type: Elevation Over Azimuth with Polarization compensation.
  • Environmental Conditions: Compliant with Airborne RTCA DO-160G/MIL-STD.
