Receiver Wind Speed

What is the meaning of Receiver Wind Speed?

Receiver Wind Speed refers to the maximum wind speed that the satellite dish (receiver terminal) can safely withstand or operate in without losing alignment, signal quality, or suffering physical damage.

Receiver Wind Speed refers to the highest wind velocity that the satellite dish, or receiver, can safely operate or withstand without losing alignment, signal quality, or suffering physical damage. Since satellite dishes must stay precisely pointed toward orbiting satellites, strong winds can shake or misalign them, disrupting connectivity. Manufacturers therefore specify a wind speed rating that indicates how much wind the dish can tolerate during normal operation and how much it can physically survive without breaking. This rating helps ensure reliable internet performance and structural safety, especially in areas prone to storms or high winds.
