RM120 Broadcast Roof Mount

Holkirk’s RM series of DSNG antennas is designed to excel in today’s demanding DSNG environment.

With meticulous attention to mechanical detail and the use of high-performance materials, the RM antenna series ensures years of continuous service in the most challenging applications.

Compact

The RM antenna is an ultra-compact roof-mount system that houses the drive control, positioning hardware, and BUC/HPA within an aerodynamic enclosure, creating a robust, self-contained assembly ready for installation on almost any vehicle.

Versatile

The RM series’ versatile power payload is designed to accommodate low-power SSPAs or high-power TWTs in single-thread or 1:1 redundant configurations, with power levels up to 400W.

Automatic Acquisition

The satellite acquisition controller utilizes industry-standard position transducers and a sophisticated pattern-recognition algorithm to verify and refine pointing data using visible satellites. The controller is mounted on the antenna structure, while a separate power supply and control panel are housed in a rack-mount unit for installation within the equipment area.

Ease of Use

The system is simple to install, configure, and operate. After deployment, the system reliably and precisely locates and locks onto the designated traffic satellite—typically in under 3 minutes from the stowed position.
