Overview
The iNetVu

Mobile Satellite Internet system is an automatic scanner, polarizer and beam positioning
system for a foldable two-way satellite antenna. It has been designed to automatically find and acquire
the satellite beam and the position based on both a GPS position reading as well as other positioning
parameters. It is targeted for mobile users that require high speed Internet access in remote locations
where cable and DSL do not exist. It provides two-way, high-speed data communications over satellite.
iNetVu™ empowers mobile users with the ability to stop anywhere there is Satellite coverage and
access Internet at broadband speeds. The iNetVu™ Mobile application consists of the iNetVu™ Mobile

All iNetVu™ Mobile Systems have been fully tested with the iNetVu ™ 7710 Controller prior to shipment.
All position feedback; limit sensing, limit switches and motor speeds have been calibrated and preset
prior to shipping. The wave-guide, the boom mounted Radio Transmitter cables and the
Transmission/Receive coaxial cables have all pre-wired. There is no need to re-calibrate the Mobile
Platform unless directed by a C-Com Support Technician.
It is
critical
