For installation of our Panel Version there should be at least 10cm clearance between the dish and the dome cover, to keep the dish fully operational.
The systems comes with all parts/cables required, except the ethernet cable connecting the dome to the ship’s network.

The panels are compatible with 3G, 4G and 5G. SIM card licenses with subscription are directly available from Meridian 5G, own Sim card use is also possible. Note: that the own Sim card subscriptions needs to be suitable for data modems
