The Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organization (DALO) intend to buy a number of new Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS) certified SATCOM-at-the-halt (SATH) terminals, designed for mounting on vehicles.
The SATH terminal shall only be operational while the vehicle is stationary. After the vehicle has come to a halt, the terminal shall automatically and within minutes set up a data connection via the WGS satellite. Before the vehicle starts to move, the antenna must be folded to a stowed position. When stowed, the antenna dimensions and shape must be optimized for minimum risk of damage when the vehicle is moving.
The SATH terminal shall have a robust construction and shall be tested for the harsh environment on a military vehicle and be designed for operation in both hot and cold climate zones. The terminal will be installed on either a tracked vehicle or a vehicle with wheels. The antenna part of the terminal will be installed on top of a military vehicle while the terminal control unit will be located inside the vehicle.
Connection to the Danish Anchor station shall be established via WGS satellites, operating in the military Ka-band. The antenna aperture size should be equivalent to a circular parabolic diameter of around 1 meter.
Terminal control shall be an easy one-man operation via a Graphical User Interface (GUI). The terminal must have an integrated WGS certified modem and be able to support IP based communication technology based on the iDirect platform.
The SATH terminal shall be delivered with an initial package of spare parts sufficient to ensure availability of parts during the defect liability period and all necessary documentation to operate, maintain and repair the SATH terminal included in the delivery.
A help-desk shall be made available during the defect liability period for both operational and technical assistance.
The delivery will also include a framework agreement concerning training courses regarding the delivered systems and spare parts for a period of 7 years from commencement.
