allows it to carry a wide range of powerful transmitters in a compact 1.2 Meter package for a much smaller footprint on your roof. With one button connectivity and the ability to point to any of 6 satellites at will, the Broadcaster is a flexible and affordable solution to demanding on-site media requirements.
The Broadcaster can meet the transmitting specifications of much larger (and more expensive) systems. Stowed Size is 73" length x 48" width x 14.5" height. (185cm x 122cm x 37cm).

The Broadcaster has the ability to locate and lock on an Ku band satellite without the need to communicate with the satellite modem. Its build in DVB S2 Satellite identification technology will establish a lock within 4 minutes upon deployment... In both northern and southern hemispheres, with either stable or inclined orbiting satellites.
The Broadcaster unique design allows for larger BUC capacity due to the flexible waveguide that conforms to different radio assemblies normally too large for a 1.2 meter dish. The Broadcaster is rated to carry up to a 400 watt BUC. Please contact Ground Control regarding your specific requirements.
You have the option of using the Broadcaster with our standard "shared" iDirect Services of 5Mb down by 2Mb up as well as using our dedicated video streaming services CIR 1:1 unshared channels for up to 2Mb x 2Mb reliable streaming.
