Automatic Antenna Alignment

Automatic alignment of the directional antenna greatly simplifies operation.
The operator simply selects the desired receive site and the antenna aligns automatically - even when the vehicle is moving.

High gain and directivity to provide the maximum area of coverage.
Selectable polarization to choose the optimum sense of polarization of the transmitted signal as well as to use cross polarization to provide isolation from interfering signals.

Rugged worm gear drive with an automatic heater for reliability that is far superior to belt- or chain-drive positioners.
Includes an RF rotary joint and an encased slip ring assembly with precious metal tracks and brushes.
Continuous rotation without limits and a pan rate six times that of traditional pan/tilt positioners for rapid alignment of live shots.

The NSI MC5 can remotely control the NuPod®, which takes the microwave setup activities out of the truck and allows a single operator at the studio location to control both ends of the microwave link.
Additional equipment in the remote vehicle can also be remotely controlled by the MC5, including transmitters and receivers, cameras and switchers/routers.
It also features several advanced automatic functions to simplify live shots and enhance daily operations, including the state-of-the-art Auto Link™ function.

Auto Link™ is an advanced automatic function of the NSI MC5 remote control.
It automatically aligns the transmit and central receive antennas, selects the channel and antenna polarization, sets the transmitter power output and optimizes the LNA level – at the touch of a button.
Closed loop solution simplifies operation and reduces setup time.
