Shown in prototype at IBC 2013 and now deliverable, the MAF 1.4 incorporates fully automatic satellite acquisition. Based on the unique Hiltron HSACU SNG antenna controller, it allows a satellite to be found in less than two minutes, from any location and at any time.

The MAF 1.4 is equipped with a high-precision antenna mount which is guided by a carrier identification algorithm, explains Hiltron Managing Director Michael Schiestl. Antenna mount and controller are closely integrated. The MAF system provides a level of quality and excellence not seen before in the satellite newsgathering market at such an affordable price.

The antenna can be accommodated in five IATA-compliant cases comprising three for the antenna plus one each for the control electronics and high power amplifier. Hiltrons award-winning HMCS SNG management software allows fast and easy setup of the uplink without need for deep technical knowledge.

Hiltron Communications (www.hiltron.de) operates from modern purpose-built headquarters at Backnang near Stuttgart. On-site facilities include a large technical operations area with high access doors and ceiling, capable of accommodating satellite-link vehicles and their roof-mounted antennas. Hiltron is part of the Dan Technologies group, one of Europes leading suppliers of audio, video, transmission products and digital media solutions.

Exhibiting on stand stand G6-32 in hall 6, Hiltron will be represented by Michael Schiestl and colleagues from the Dan Technologies group.
