The TripleA Motorized Satellite Mount is cost effective approach to multi-satellite communication at any location because it eliminates the requirement for a certified satellite technician for installation pointing, re-pointing, or transporting it anywhere. The fact that the TripleA is motorized means it may auto-acquire any Ku-band satellite at the touch of a button normally within 5 minutes.

Each TripleA can point to any satellite with a pull-down menu of all available Ku-Band satellites in orbit. The dish uses DVB-S1 technology to acquire a satellite within 4 to 10 minutes if there is line-of-sight to that satellite. This is convenient for organizations that have backup satellites for network redundancy, or for connecting to multiple satellites without the need to purchase multiple fixed satellite dishes.
The TripleA 1.2 Meter system also has the ability to track geosynchronous satellites that are in an unstable “Inclined” orbit. The integrated auto-aligning routines keep the signal stable at all times.
 Since the system is motorized, transporting it to a new location requires no special gear or calibrations. Simply relocate the dish and select the satellite to connect with.
Upgrading an existing satellite system to a 1.2M TripleA is easy because there is no need to run new cables. The TripleA uses the existing cabling to communicate with the controller & dish. Simply confirm there is a 2 7/8 " to 3" (70 to 76 mm) OD (outside diameter) pipe for the mount to attach to, and swap the dish out with the TripleA.
A technician does not need to be dispatched to align a misaligned dish. Simply press the "Search" button at and the system will auto-acquire the satellite in minutes. Network downtime from satellite dish misalignment is reduced from days to minutes.
If you are in a harsh environment, the TripleA is rated for operation in environments that range from (minus) -40° to 132° F
(-40° to 55° C). This dish may also be stowed horizontal, giving it survivability from winds of 125 MPH (200Kph) as from a severe storm.
Optional software can provide organizations the ability to control multiple TripleA satellite systems from a
central location anywhere.

Shipping within the U.S. has no issues. If you are outside of the U.S., we prefer using a freight forwarding service that originates within the U.S. such as DHL.... Also, consider saving on equipment and shipping expenses by shipping just the mount and purchasing the common satellite dish through a local distributor. This will avoid shipping regulations of satellite systems in some countries. Please speak with a Ground Control representative for your specific need.
1. Set a 2 7/8" to 3" (70 to 76 mm) OD (Outside Diameter) pipe into the ground.
... OR assemble a non-penetrating roof/ground mount (see below).
2. Run the cables from the system to inside the building.
3. Connect the cables to the 3 button TripleA controller and satellite modem.
Simple step-by-step instructions guide the process for installation success.
