Paradigm Releases Ultra Portable Ka-band Terminal

February 15th 2016

Paradigm’s new flat panel Swarm45 provides high data rates together with extreme portability and simple pointing. It will operate on any high-throughput Ka-Band satellite.
The Swarm45 is ultra portable and quick to deploy and stow. It has a total weight of only 14.5kg (32lbs), so even with packaging it easily meets IATA regulations.

Designed around the PIM (Paradigm Interface Module) terminal controller, the Swarm45 provides everything you need for straightforward setup and pointing, allowing you to be operational in less than 5 minutes.

The PIM has an integrated modem and is designed for simple and intuitive setup and deployment. The integrated audio and visual pointing aids provide an effective method of acquiring the satellite without the extra bulk of motors and controllers.

The Swarm45’s ultra portability and rapid deployment capability make it ideally suited to the military, broadcast, government and disaster recovery sectors.

“With the Swarm45, we are providing the high data rates of VSAT with the same portability and simplicity of BGAN. Our initial customers have been impressed by the flexibility and ease of use that this terminal provides”, stated Warren Ackerley, Business Development Director at Paradigm.
