Meet Our 24 ft (7.3 m) Antennas: Big Capability, Proven Performance.

PD900 Series 24 ft (7.3 m) HyperTrack™ Telemetry Antennas

Better, Faster, Stronger

Quasonix PD900 Series Antennas are built for reach: a 24-foot aperture engineered to reliably acquire and track the weakest signals. Robotics-grade components, chosen for duty cycles far beyond typical telemetry demands, deliver sustained precision for years in harsh environments. The PD900’s modular architecture supports rapid-delivery COTS configurations and MOTS variants tailored to your requirements.

Track with Unrivaled Precision

Track with Unrivaled Precision

FPGA-based real-time HyperTrack™ control eliminates tracking jitter and lag, outperforming legacy control systems without exception. Plano-centric drive systems deliver positioning accuracy and repeatability to 0.01 degrees.
