Satellite Earth Station Antenna Control System

At Satellite 2016, Radeus Labs announces the immediate availability of the Model 8200 Satellite Earth Station Antenna Control System, enabling customers with legacy systems or new installations to upgrade to the new state of the art controller.

“The 8200 has been developed to compete with and outperform the most widely known legacy controllers of the past 20 years,” said Louis Barnett, Director of Sales & Marketing at Radeus Labs.

Customers have already benefited from deploying the 8200. Radeus Labs is partnering with Bill Anton at Alpha Satcom to provide control systems for their new antennas and US Electrodynamics at two of their teleport operations to both conduct extensive testing of the 8200 and install on their customer’s new antenna installations. The 8200 will enable customers to track and control on site and remotely, maintaining communications with their targets. “This is so much easier to use than the legacy controllers we have,” said Eduardo Martinez, Station Engineer, USEI.

The 8200 is a product driven by many years of customer feedback and is part of Radeus Labs commitment to innovation and delivering the latest in tracking controllers. The 8200 is available for configuration and sale by contacting Radeus Labs at sales@RadeusLabs.com or by visiting the website at www.radeuslabs.com.

Founded in 2002, Radeus Labs, a leader in Computing Solutions, was created out of the need to produce high tech, cost effective custom computing solutions that did not compromise on quality and value. Since then, operations have expanded to cover a diverse range of other quality products and services.

Writing a Grant Proposal for Dispatch or Public Safety Gear? Focus on These 3 Things

You know the drill: your department needs new equipment now, but the budget, or the grant, only goes so far. That’s why so many emergency services teams apply for what they can get today, with plans to expand when more funding comes through.

The good news? Funders are often open to a phased approach, as long as you spell it out clearly. When you show that your gear can scale with your needs, you’re not just being budget-savvy. You’re showing long-term thinking, operational resilience, and responsible use of public funds.

In this post, we’ll walk you through the three most important things to include in your grant proposal, so you can get the equipment you need now, and build on it later.

Why R&D Hardware Choices Can Make (or Break) Your Project

If you’re part of an engineering team, you know the story too well: the prototype works fine, but once you move toward production, everything starts to fall apart. The part you counted on goes end-of-life. Licensing costs balloon out of nowhere. Thermal issues show up in the field that you never saw in the lab. Suddenly your carefully built timeline slips, and you’re the one explaining delays and budget overruns to leadership.

The hard truth? Most of these headaches can be traced back to hardware decisions made early in R&D.
