[SatNews] ORBIT Communication Systems, Ltd. has launched their…
…OceanTRx™, an innovative maritime stabilized VSAT product line, sharing a common platform: OceanTRx 4 and OceanTRx 7, at Satellite 2013, booth #3111. Complementing the maritime platform is RailTRx™ a new train stabilized VSAT product line. OrTes, a subsidiary and joint enterprise between Orbit and Italy’s TeS, Teleinformatica e Sistemis r.l., is unveiling RailTRx. All of these systems, aimed for the current and future needs of the maritime and train markets, will have live demos at Orbit’s booth.
OceanTRx4 supports a variety of 1.15m stabilized maritime antenna system configurations in multiband frequencies, such as X, Ku and Ka bands and BUC power level. Empowering mission and business-critical applications, it features inherent field upgradability, outstanding RF performance and dynamic response under virtually any sea conditions. To enable superior system availability and connection uptime, OceanTRx 4 is designed and tested to meet the most stringent environmental standards including shocks, bumps and vibrations.
OceanTRx 7 offers numerous 2.2m stabilized maritime antenna system configurations in multiband frequencies such as C, Ku and Ka bands and BUC power level. Built for quick and easy installation, upgrade and maintenance, it combines exceptional RF performance and system availability with an extraordinarily small footprint. Small enough to be shipped as a fully assembled unit in a standard 20 foot container already pre-tested over satellite, OceanTRx 7 drastically lowers shipping costs. Its 2.2m dish and 2.7m radome occupy 40 percent less deck space and weigh 30 percent less than industry-standard systems.
Designed for efficient on-board serviceability and maintainability, OceanTRx 4 and OceanTRx 7 feature highly accessible pedestal design enabling efficient service support and field upgrade process without requiring accurate or periodic balancing. The OceanTRx product line share common electronic field-replaceable units (FRUs), allowing lower cost of ownership, easier maintenance support, and shorter response times. For the evolving broadband communications needs of inter-city, regional and high speed trains, RailTRx supports a variety of stabilized train antenna system configurations in Ku and Ka bands. With a track record of dozens of operational systems, RailTRx features outstanding RF performance, system availability and high immunity to environmental electromagnetic interferences.
