Full Time, Dedicated Satellite Space Exactly When You Need It
All On Call Communications Fly Away Antennas are fully automated. What does that mean? Once assembled the antenna uses an on-board compass and GPS to determine where it is in relation
to the satellite, point to the satellite and do its cros-pol and peak
operations automatically saving you the time and effort of manually
finding the satellite and calling in for a manual cros-pol and peak.
Portable Fly Away Antenna or Vehicle Mount Antenna?
How about both?
On Call also offers a hybrid flyaway antenna which can be packed, shipped and assembled like a flyaway but with the
option of mounting it on top of a vehicle upon arrival at your
destination. Learn
more about the Fly and Drive antennas.
How will automated satellite affect your
operation?
Automated setup is much faster than manual setup and can be performed
by non-technical operators. That means you won't have to send a
satellite engineer out into the field to establish communications for
your working team. Satellite communications can be quickly and easily
established by virtually any member of your field team and then the
automated system lets them focus on their primary responsibilities.
How long does it take to assemble a portable FlyAway Antenna?
Several flyaway antenna models are available with varying amounts of
assembly required. Set up time ranges from less than five minutes to
about 15 minutes. Lightweight, intuitive, toolless assemblies help you get on air
quickly.
How many people does it take to set up a fly away antenna?
That depends a bit on which model you choose and how large and strong
you are. We have ultra lightweight fly away antennas that can easily be set up by someone of virtually any size and antennas up to 2 meters which, of course, require larger, heavier components. Having a helper can speed the process up a bit and make it
easier to assemble some of the larger models.
How do I select the best flyaway antenna for my project?
Every project is unique. Our sales and engineering team will help you
review all the factors that go into making your communications endeavor a
success by recommending the best fit and most cost effective satellite
uplink system for your particular needs.
Here are some of the factors we can help you consider:
Transportation requirements: Do you need to take your satellite antenna system on an airplane or need a system that fits in the back of your
pickup truck? Let us know what your transport requirements are and
we'll help select the lightweight fly away that is right for you.
Bandwidth requirements: What applications are you using in
the field? How many users? Do you know your average and peak traffic
upload and download usage? Are you implementing Wide Area Network
Acceleration (WANX) to get the fastest data transport with the lowest
operating costs? Our experienced engineers review your current and
future data, video and voice capacity needs to maximize your
communications value.
Available satellite bandwidth: Do you have existing
satellite bandwidth you want to operate on? or would you like us to
source a satellite service for you? On Call will calculate a link
budget to make certain that your hardware is adequate to provide the
required throughput in most weather conditions and throughout your
desired operating region.
