Internet Rooftops

With Travellers, Internet is of considerable interest and debate

The key issue is speed and performance versus cost

In general broadband Inernet is reserved for commercial users as the myriad of things that myst be in palce for it to happen means

•  Moderate dish sizes

•  High pointing accuracy

•  Considerable constraints on control to make sure satellite transmit signals are only transmitted from the vehicle rooftop when it is safe to do so and it will not interfere with either terrestrial systems or other satellites.

Campernet Satellite Broadband package 2701

We are now offering commercial equipment to professional standards to fit this need. It is not budget, but it is affordable and a necessity for a niche element of our wandering travellers who must have good Internet to do business or carry on essential activities when away from it all. Let’s call him (her) Oscar
So you pull up and press the button…We now have:
Oscar’s really solid professional mechanism and motor drives springing in to action

Oscar has an on board computer in his mount
Oscar has on board sensors that measure the pitch and roll of your vehicle so Oscar knows just well (or badly) you have parked… Well it is nighttime and it is raining…)

Oscar’s on board GPS does know where you are even if you don’t… and - yes you can read and look yourself up on the map.)
Oscar’s on board compass also knows which way your vehicle is pointing so you don’t have to look at where the sun is at dinnertime.

Oscar has all the facts to know just where to point the dish. So up goes the dish in the exact direction. No doing 360-degree wheelies and no searching where even we know there are no satellites.
Oscar then locks on to the satellite, trims the dish and automatically communicates with the satellite ground station to set up the Internet circuit.
What about the control panel? Well Oscar has a nice small control box less than the size of your satellite TV receiver with a smart pop up touch screen just like the ones on expensive cars.
This screen has all the facilities and display to tell you what is happening and just where it is looking. It even tells you how long to take to find and lock on to your Internet.

Great. Now enjoy your surfing.
One other nice thing... No multiple core cables to install. The power and control for the whole shebang is by one single coax cable
Just Three coax cables to install. This one plus one for receive and one for transmit. Easy... Just mount your satellite system anywhere on the roof where it is out of the way of all the other stuff up there and cable to your computer desk.
Once connected power consumption is negligible with only the satellite modem operating whist you are on the net.
