The 4006 is a 1-meter Ku-Band maritime VSAT antenna for SCPC, broadband, or hybrid networks. The 4006 utilizes the same radome and antenna as the 4003. This antenna system meets the FCC's 2-degree spacing requirement, which is a remarkable achievement for a 1-meter ring-focus antenna. The antenna efficiency is better than 70% across the transmit and receive bands and is ideal for ocean going vessels that require "always-on" broadband satellite communications. The 4006 is suitable for file and image transfer, video conferencing, e-mail, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), and database backup

DAC 2200
The 4006 Series utilizes the new DAC 2200 antenna control unit. The DAC 2200 ACU is 1 rack-unit in height (1.75 inches) and is configured with an L-band DVB compliant tracking receiver, gyrocompass interfaces for both digital (NMEA 0183 HDT character strings) and most analog gyrocompass systems. A gyrocompass or other ships heading reference is required for proper system operation.
