SAILOR 900 VSAT Ku

The innovative SAILOR 900 VSAT platform, which has become a benchmark for quality and high performance, keeps expanding with new solutions tailored to

every need.

Focus on higher return links

While one-metre Ku-band antennas with 8W amplifier (BUC) configurations are now a de-facto standard for global Ku-band networks, the ever increasing demand for

more bandwidth and higher data through put also for the uplink to the satellite has triggered demand for antenna systems with higher RF power.

A competitive package

To meet the challenge, Cobham SATCOM has employed its proven engineering method to design and specify our 20W extended frequency BUC, with focus

on performance and reliability. Cobham SATCOM has ensured that all environment al challenges are met. With this powerful BUC, the SAILOR 900 VSAT High Power can provide higher speed uplink even in regions with high temperatures.

Avoid blocking, improved line-of sight to the satellite

Service Level Agreements (SLA) are a crucial aspect of maritime IT and communication solutions. In order to meet the demand for high SLAs, especially when there are obstructions on the ship that cannot be overcome by setting up blocking zones, satcom service providers sometimes install two antennas. The SAILOR Ku-Band VSAT platform makes this easier and less costly as it can operate two antenna systems on a single modem without the need for an extra box to manage the connection to the VSAT modem. The two SAILOR 900 antennas controllers manage the connection between satellite and satellite router fully automatically and

the switch-over happens in just 20 milli seconds.

Flexible and future-proof

New Ku-band and Ka-band high through put satellites (HTS) are coming online. All SAILOR Ku-Band VSAT have been tested to work on HTS services, such as Intelsat’s EpicNG. Most of the SAILOR 900 VSAT variants are prepared for conversion from Ku to Ka-band operation should the customer demand it. For those who do not intend to convert to Ka-band at a later stage, we offer our latest addition to the SAILOR 900 series namely the SAILOR 900 Ku Optimised antennas, also in the 8W and 20W variants. With this solution, you will enjoy all the benefits of the well-known SAILOR technology platform at a competitive price that reflects your business needs.
