Intellian V240MT Multi Orbit (GEO/MEO) Dual-Band Tracking Antenna
Tracks both geostationary Earth orbit (GEO) satellites, as well as medium Earth orbit (MEO)
V240MT Multi Orbit Tracking Antenna
The Intellian v240MT Dual-Band Tracking Antenna enables communication services in three different frequency bands and tracks both geostationary satellites (GEO), as well as medium earth orbit (MEO) satellites.
With its MEO tracking capability, the Intellian V240MT provides global coverage ensuring interruption-free connectivity. The V240MT fulfills previously unmet market demands by high-volume data users such as offshore, seismic and cruise vessels, that require fast and seamless communication services like those available on land.
Flexible Solution Architecture
The v240MT is capable of switching multiple antennas. Two antennas may be tracking moving MEO satellites while a third could be pointed at a fixed GEO satellite. If one antenna becomes blocked by a part of the ship, the system will automatically select the next best solution and switch without any loss of connection for those on-board. All this happens automatically, without any intervention.
Supporting Dual Data Centers on a ship ensures uninterrupted connectivity. The identical mirrored systems, including a full complement of antenna controllers, Intelligent Mediators and satellite modems, can handle instant changeover between each other with no manual intervention, an important factor in crew safety and vessel operations.
