un kit pour monter un drapeau/avec étoile
Explanation:
I think that you might have a typo, starburst, not starbust. Starburst is a popular pattern used for embroidery, patchwork, and now often used on flags to decorate homes (especially in the US). The satrburst pattern is a star pattern, but usually with lots of points, not just five or six, like we draw when we're children. It looks like the star is really shining, bursting with color or light. I suppose that the flagpole kit comes with this flag pattern included in the box.

mât haut pour antenne Starbust


Explanation:
Si le mât servait à fixer une antenne?
La société Starbust mentionnée dans ce communiqué de presse s'intéresse à la diffusion d'Internet par satellite:
http://www.sfim.fr/fr/communiques/cp-1sem97.htm
"Jeff Lindholm, Vice-Président de la société Starbust Communications (éditeur de logiciels IP Multicasting), ajoute: " Les récents développements visant à inclure IP Multicasting dans le protocole IP (distribution asymétrique d’Internet en point-multipoint avec voie de retour à faible débit) permettent une alliance parfaite entre Internet et les
media haut débit tels que le satellite et le câble ".
Par contre je n'ai pas trouvé d'autre trace de cette société, donc la solution de la faute de frappe suggérée par les collègues est aussi possible.
