Satellite Antenna
Model V2TH

Description

The V2TH Satellite Antenna provides a high-performance satellite data telemetry link for hydrological and meteorological data transmission.
The V2TH’s design virtually eliminates all existing problems that occur with other available antenna technology. Its ability to operate through the destructive forces of severe weather has been proven, as it has withstood the extreme freezing temperatures of the arctic, hurricane force winds in the tropics and been buried in the snow of mountainous regions.
The V2TH’s small size gives users great latitude in the selection of mounting options. The V2TH can be suspended or mounted inside nonmetallic protective structures, or mounted outside on a building, post or tower. When mounted inside a building, nonmetallic materials such as painted plywood, window glass, plastic, tar paper, or fiberglass shingles have little or no effect on a radiated signal. For adjustable exterior mounting, the V2TH Elevation Mount is available.
This mount is designed to clamp to vertical poles using either U-bolts (2" provided), straps or hose clamps. The V2TH Elevation Mount can also be mounted to a wall or other flat surfaces.

Technological specifications

When pointed directly at a satellite, the V2TH antenna’s input power range of 6 to 25 watts results in the GOES DCS permitted EIRP of +47dBm ~ 3dB.
The V2TH’s 1dB beam width of 60 degrees allows simultaneous and equal illumination of two satellites.
