Specifications
Starlink V-Cell IP68 Rugged Housing – Mini & Standard Gen 3 / V4 Mine Spec
The Spacetek V-Cell is a protective IP68 tested housing system for Starlink Mini and Starlink Standard (Gen 3 / V4) terminals in mobile, fleet, caravan, marine, mining and remote-site installs where the terminal needs to be contained, mounted and better protected from harsh exposed conditions and where operational uptime is critical.
Choose the Starlink Mini variant for compact Mini installs. Choose the Starlink Standard Gen 3 / V4 variant for the larger flat rectangular Standard terminal, also known as Standard Kit, Standard 4 or V4.
Which V-Cell should I choose?
| Choose | Fits | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Starlink Mini | Starlink Mini terminal | Compact mobile, fleet, caravan, marine and remote-site installs where a Mini terminal needs a protective housing. |
| Starlink Standard Gen 3 / V4 | Starlink Gen 3 Standard 4 / V4 terminal | Larger installs where the full-size Standard terminal needs a sealed protective housing system. |
Choose this if
- ✅ You need a housing system for a Starlink Mini or Starlink Standard (Gen 3 / V4) terminal.
- ✅ The install will be exposed to water, dust, spray, rain, vibration or rough site conditions.
- ✅ You want the terminal contained inside a repeatable vehicle, rack, tray, vessel or site-hut install.
- ✅ You are selecting the mounting brackets and cable-entry path separately for the final structure.
Why use a V-Cell housing?
- ✅ Harsh-environment protection: helps protect the Starlink terminal from dust, rain, spray, vibration and exposed vehicle or site conditions.
- ✅ Sealed-housing design: uses housing, gasket and cable-entry principles to support sealing performance when correctly assembled to acheieve IP68 protection.
- ✅ No Starlink terminal modification: the terminal sits inside the enclosure without cutting or drilling the Starlink hardware.
- ✅ Cleaner vehicle and fleet installs: useful where the Starlink terminal needs to be protected, contained and mounted as part of a repeatable install.
- ✅ Flexible mounting path: pair the V-Cell with compatible brackets or accessories for the vehicle, roof rack, tray, rail or custom structure.

Important notes
The V-Cell housing is not a structural mount by itself. Use mounting hardware suitable for the vehicle, vessel, roof rack, tray or site structure.
Correct gasket, cable-entry and fastener installation is critical for sealing performance. Do not treat the housing name or IP-style wording as a substitute for installation quality or site-specific suitability checks.
In-motion or extreme-environment use depends on the quality of the mounting system, cable routing and installer judgement. Confirm the final installation suits the vehicle, vessel or site before use.
The V-Cell does not remove normal Starlink performance requirements. Maintain appropriate sky visibility and use the Starlink app to confirm performance after installation.
