Satellite antenna Schwaiger SPI085

The Schwaiger SPI085 satellite antenna is a high-gain parabolic dish engineered for reception in the 10.70–12.75 GHz satellite frequency band. With a dish diameter of 85 cm and a gain of 39.3 dBi, this white antenna is intended for fixed installations where stable, long-range satellite signal reception is required. The compact footprint and weather-resistant construction make it suitable for mounting on rooftops, walls, or masts to serve home or small professional reception setups.

Advantages

The antenna provides a high directional gain of 39.3 dBi that improves signal strength from geostationary satellites within the specified frequency range. Its 85 cm parabolic reflector balances performance and size for residential and small commercial applications. The white finish reduces visible contrast on building exteriors and the robust materials offer resistance to typical outdoor conditions. Designed for standard LNB interfaces, it integrates with common satellite receiving equipment.

Key specifications

• Frequency range: 10.70–12.75 GHz
• Gain: 39.3 dBi
• Dish diameter: 85 cm
• Colour: white
• Mounting options: rooftop, wall, mast compatible
• Connector interface: standard LNB mount

How to use

Mount the antenna on a stable support such as a roof bracket, wall arm or mast, ensuring the dish has a clear line of sight to the target satellite arc and is free from obstructions like trees or nearby buildings. Attach a compatible LNB to the standard mount and run coaxial cable from the LNB to your satellite receiver or distribution equipment. Use a satellite finder or receiver signal meter to fine-tune azimuth and elevation for optimal signal quality, then tighten all fasteners and weather-seal cable entries.

Recommendations

The antenna performs best when installed with an unobstructed view of the southern sky in the northern hemisphere (or the appropriate satellite arc for your location). Use weatherproof coaxial connectors and sealant at outdoor connections to maintain long-term signal reliability. For improved reception, verify alignment with a signal meter and, if needed, consider using a low-noise LNB compatible with the specified frequency band.
