GetSAT's MilliSAT Terminals to Support C4ISR for U.S. Government


GetSAT has been awarded, in partnership with a division of Honeywell, a multi-million dollar contract by a U.S. Government agency for Command, Control, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) applications in support of missions during dire and emergent situations in the continental United States — the agency selected GetSAT’s MilliSAT L/M (land and maritime) Ka- and Ku-band versions to provide maritime and ground-based high-data rate, secure Communications-On-The-Move (COTM).

GetSAT's portable MilliSAT L/M terminals will be deployed to support Satellite-On-The-Move (SOTM) for land-based vehicles and maritime platforms in remote areas for emergency support. Based on the company's patented fully-interlaced InterFLAT panel technology for transmitting and receiving signals on the same panel, MilliSAT provides fully autonomous transmission and reception of high bandwidth data rates of more than 20 Mbps. The ruggedized, medium lightweight, Ka- and Ku-band terminals meet the demanding requirements of full-time usage in harsh environments.

GetSat's micronized L/M terminals are easy to deploy and integrate and can be outfitted in various antenna sizes in accordance with bandwidth requirements of ground, air and maritime applications.The terminal's unique all-in-one design and super-light compact installation offer significant savings in size, weight, and power usage (SWaP) and include an integrated BUC and modem.
