The SkyEdge IV Taurus-M modem is backward compatible to SkyEdge II-c and, as such, protects past investments of customers whom have already adopted Gilat's leading satellite network platform. With a low SWAP (Size, Weight, and Power) that's ideal for armored fighting vehicles and man-pack deployment, and compliance with MIL-STD-810F standards, Gilat's SkyEdge IV Taurus-M answers market demands for the smallest, rugged, high-performance modem for mobile satellite communications.
