Pack your Performance Gen 3.

Pack your Starlink Performance (Gen 3) around the equipment you actually carry: terminal, Wedge Mount, Advanced Power Supply, Router 3 and cables. Lay out the complete kit before packing, and keep the connectors clear of pressure.

The Performance Gen 3 case layout shown here is for the Performance (Gen 3) combination confirmed for this case. Performance and Standard are different hardware families; a Router 3 or the words Gen 3 alone do not identify the terminal.

What to pack for a Starlink Gen 3 trip

Use this checklist for your own equipment. It is not a list of items included with a carrying case.

Your Performance (Gen 3) terminal. Compare the exact terminal and mounting parts with the layout. Remove loose items that could press against its surface.
Router 3, if used in your setup. The illustrated case has a separate router position. The Performance base kit does not itself include a router.
Advanced Power Supply and power leads. Pack the AC and/or DC cable used with your tested setup. Keep the cable ends and power supply in their intended spaces.
The Performance and network cables you carry. The official base kit lists a 25 m Performance cable and 5 m Ethernet cable. The photographs show coiled cables; confirm your actual lengths and coil size rather than assuming every optional cable fits.
Wedge Mount and its fasteners. Compare the mount with the illustrated position. A different mount or leaving it attached can change the space required.
A charged phone and the Starlink app. Make sure you can access your account and the correct setup guide before reaching a place with limited connectivity.
A dry case and matching insert. Check the dish recess, accessory compartments and lid clearance with your actual equipment.
A destination check. Confirm coverage and the service conditions that apply to your account and route. Carrying the hardware does not establish permission to use it everywhere.

Check Performance and Standard separately

Starlink lists Performance (Gen 3) separately from Standard 4 and Standard 4 X. Performance Gen 3 case is described here for the confirmed Performance combination, not for every kit sold under the Gen 3 name. Router Mini, other mounts and third-party networking equipment need their own fit check.

Plan the case layout before you pack

Performance Gen 3 case separates the Performance terminal from the Wedge Mount, Advanced Power Supply, Router 3 and coiled cables. Compare the whole arrangement with your equipment, including the mount and the space needed by each connector.

Official equipment dimensions

Equipment references, not Performance Gen 3 case case or compartment measurements
Equipment	Official reference	Packing check
Performance (Gen 3) terminal	609 × 396 × 40 mm	Compare the terminal recess and any attached hardware.
Performance Wedge Mount	8° tilt; side-view drawing: 613 mm long and 119 mm high	Check the complete mount profile and whether it is packed separately.
Advanced Power Supply	310 × 180 × 40 mm	Allow additional room for the cables and plugs.
Router 3	298.6 × 120.4 × 43.4 mm in the router specification table	Confirm the actual router version and any attached mount.

The Performance kit's 686 × 454 × 121 mm figure is its shipping-package size, not the antenna size or usable case space. Official equipment dimensions help identify the parts; compartment depth and lid clearance still need checking with the loaded case.

FPVtosky packing suggestions for the illustrated layout
Storage area	What to check
Terminal and Wedge Mount	Use the terminal layer and the mount position shown. Check that the terminal rests evenly, with no loose parts pressing against it.
Router	The confirmed combination uses Router 3. Do not assume that Router Mini, a router mount or third-party networking hardware shares the same fit.
Power equipment	Use the Advanced Power Supply position. Keep its plugs clear of the terminal and any removable part of the insert.
Cable coil	Make a relaxed coil that fits the compartment. Keep connectors visible and free from pressure; do not force the cable into a sharp bend beside a plug.
Small parts and lid	Separate loose adapters and fasteners where space permits. Close the lid gently and check that no cable crosses the closing edge.

What to confirm for Performance Gen 3 case

The product page lists the current case dimensions, net weight and included items. Compare the separate compartment shapes and lid clearance with your equipment. IP67 is the specified case protection rating; it does not establish a drop or load test for the kit you pack.

The product page provides the current case specifications and purchasing or inquiry options.

Pack cables without loading the connectors

Before packing, FPVtosky recommends switching off the power source, disconnecting the equipment, removing moisture and debris, and allowing the case and equipment to dry. Arrange the cable separately so its connectors are not trapped under the dish, router or lid.

Follow the release method for your actual cable. For the Performance terminal connection, Starlink describes turning the connector collar counterclockwise before pulling it out. This is different from a latching Ethernet plug. Check the correct setup guide rather than pulling an unfamiliar connector.

Before closing the case, check three things: the cable coil sits freely, no plug carries the weight of another item, and the lid closes without force. These are packing recommendations; the photograph does not confirm connector clearance for your own cable bundle.

Set up at your next stop

Unpack the operating equipment. Use Performance Gen 3 case as transport and storage. FPVtosky recommends taking the dish, router, power equipment and required cables out of the case and packing insert before use.
Choose the dish position. Use the Starlink app to check the intended sky view, then follow your hardware's setup and alignment instructions.
Connect your tested setup. Keep the power equipment and connections in conditions permitted by their instructions. Do not treat a case as an operating enclosure.
Check the connection before relying on it. Review the app's status and alerts, connect your devices and test the work you need to do.

Check your account, destination and current service conditions before travel. This guide describes packing and setting up at a stop; a carrying case is not a vehicle mount and does not establish eligibility for use while moving.

Gen 3 travel and storage questions

Does Performance Gen 3 case fit every kit called Gen 3?

The confirmed combination is the Performance (Gen 3) terminal, Wedge Mount, Advanced Power Supply, Router 3 and the cables shown. This does not establish fit for Standard 4, Standard 4 X, older Performance terminals, other mounts or every optional cable length.

Can I leave the cables connected during transport?

FPVtosky recommends disconnecting and packing the cables separately to avoid pressure on the plugs. Confirm the insert layout and clearances rather than forcing a connected cable under the lid.

Does Performance Gen 3 case include the dish and router?

No. The listing is for the case and fitted insert only. The dish, router, power supply, stand, cables and other illustrated equipment are not included.

Can I run the equipment inside a closed case?

This guide uses the case for transport and storage. Unpack the operating equipment before setup; the published information does not establish Performance Gen 3 case as an approved operating enclosure.
