Features of the terminal - designed to be fast, lightweight and cost effective - include tracking via monopulse technology and easy switching between GX and MilSatCom systems.

Based on EM Solutions' land-based mobile terminal for the Ka-band, the company has also been contracted to simultaneously deliver an X-band/Ka-band maritime terminal for another customer.
