[SatNews] ..."[the Company] has played a pivotal role in changing the industry’s perception of VSAT as a viable and convenient communications solution."



Intellian v-Series antennas are 3-axis stabilized maritime satellite communication antenna systems that support single and multi-band LNBs (including Intellian’s exclusive Global PLL LNB), both cross-pol and co-pol feeds, numerous BUC options as well as a Dual Mediator option for expanded redundancy and fail safe applications. 


The Intellian v-series antennas already support Ku-band services on the existing THOR satellite fleet, providing TSBc customers with strong performance and redundancy.  Moreover, with its simple conversion from Ku-band to Ka-band services, the v100 antenna systems provide an easy upgrade path for THOR 7, which will offer 6-9 Gbps throughput with up to 25 simultaneously active spot beams and also deliver reliable download speeds in the tens of Mbps on its HTS (High Throughput Satellite) Ka-band payload. In addition to the v100, TSBc  plans to work with Intellian to approve more antenna systems.

"Over the years, we have developed a good working partnership with Intellian," said Julian Crudge, TSBc’s Divisional Director, Network and Data services. "The v-series antenna system was chosen as it provides a viable solution for our customers, with easy upgrade capability, ensuring that we are well prepared once THOR 7 commences service."

"From intuitive user interfaces to ease of operation, our v-series antenna system delivers superior performance and reliability for maritime satellite-communications systems, both in Ku-band today and upgraded for next-generation Ka-band capability. Intellian is delighted to be chosen by Telenor Satellite Broadcasting as one of their approved antenna suppliers for its THOR 7 HTS Ka-band services."
