Creation History
Design Features
A2100 platforms designed to create telecommunication spacecraft (SC) launched into geostationary orbits have various configurations depending on telecommunication requirements, including broadband access in the Ka-band, fixed-line services in the C- and Ku-band, powerful direct broadcasting services in the Ku-band, as well as mobile capabilities using UHF, L- and S-band payloads.
The modular approach to the development of the A2100 platforms made it possible to reduce the number of structural elements, simplify the design, increase the reliability of satellites in orbit, reduce weight and reduce startup and operating costs.
A2100 platforms are made entirely from composite materials that make them lighter and more durable. The composite design also protects the platform from thermal distortion.
