The DataStorm F2 .98 meter mobile internet satellite system is the first true two-way system approved by DirecWay and the FCC. Designed to automatically acquire the internet satellite in the sky, the DataStorm F2 uses motors, gears, and a GPS system to adapt to the mobile environment. It's unique fold-down design [12" when stowed] lets most vehicles become a stable platform for installation. The D series DataStorm controllers give the DataStorm F2 true plug-and-play capabilities with any computer or network. Currently compatible with the DiRECWAY, iDirect, and UNASAT platforms, the F2 can adapt to practically any satellite platform and environment.
