Winegard... The Controller Factor (VSAT)


[SatNews] Antenna designer and pioneer, Winegard, has rolled out a new VSAT Integrated controller that...

...neatly stores an iDirect Evolution® X5 or iDirect iNFINITI® 3000 modem inside the controller housing. Other popular VSAT platforms also are compatible with the new controller, including HughesNet™, Spacenet®, Comtech® and Nera, minus the integrated feature of storing the modem inside the IDU casing.


The new Integrated Controller is completely universal and backward compatible with all other Winegard VSAT antenna systems. It comes equipped with built-in DVB (digital video broadcasting) receivers and GPS. The Integrated controller holds CE certification for international use. Winegard VSAT antenna systems and controllers are operational worldwide, including the countries of United Arab Emirates, South Africa, Russia, Iraq, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Scotland and Columbia. Winegard will be introducing the new controller at the OilComm Show held in Houston, Texas, from November 6th through the 8th.
