PORTABLE VSAT TECHNOLOGY
CONNECT THROUGH THE CHAOS
OUR SATCOM TECHNOLOGY IS CHANGING WHAT’S POSSIBLE
BATTLE-BORN AND TESTED
Beyond-Line-of-Sight Communications are essential to any successful mission. But a crowded spectrum and hostile EW threatens these critical connections. Establishing dominance in this chaos requires more than a commercial-grade VSAT product. It demands battle-hardened technology, unparalleled front-line expertise and an ongoing commitment to stay ahead of what’s next. Demand the new L3Harris.
We’ve mobilized our top scientists, engineers and customer-embedded, field-hardened experts to redefine the nature of VSAT.
We think big and build big, so we can design, manufacture and rapidly deploy the smallest, most capable VSAT on the market.
In the end, it’s not just about what we have in the field, it's about what we'll put there to help you win.
