Weighing in at just 12kgs, ManPak is an integrated and compact VSAT terminal that provides a high bandwidth connection capable of high speed data and HD SNG transmissions. Extremely rugged, portable and fully integrated, ManPak is the only terminal of its type without any loose parts. The unit features a high performance 60cm parabolic antenna, and can be used in X-, Ku- and Ka-bands. ManPak is very easy to use, offering assisted acquisition via its award-winning software and GUI. ManPak’s Cartridge Modem system allows for complete flexibility supporting multi-formats, including iDirect. The simple design allows for rapid deployment, making it ideal for fast responding newscasters, disaster recovery, emergency services, military and special operations.

It can be powered by AC adapter or 24 VDC with ‘hot-swappable’ MIL batteries, is weatherproof to IP65, and MIL STD 810F compliant, enabling transmissions to take place in difficult environmental and hazardous conditions.
