STS-9 Spec Sheet
With its rapid deployment and real-time self-leveling capabilities, the STS-9 can be used in highly mobile applications that require rapid repositioning of surveillance platforms.
The tower’s patented design allows it to be stowed at a compact 30.25 inches and extend to a full height of 16 or 20 feet in just two minutes, making it the perfect solution for environments that demand rapid deployment. Its exceptional payload capacity enables a wide range of cameras, sensors, and antennas to be easily attached and deployed with a button.
