CA Clase (UK) Ltd recently launched the TracPhone V11, the latest dual-mode C-band/Ku-band very-small-aperture terminal (VSAT) satellite communications system from KVH
The V11 is a compact 1m satellite antenna that provides high-capacity offshore connectivity anywhere in the world save the polar regions. The unit is smaller and/or lighter than similarly-sized Ku-band maritime VSAT systems. It is also 85% smaller and lighter than competing C-band SATCOM systems.
KVH’s HD11 mechanism served as the basis for a unique 4-axis gyro stabilised pedestal that mounts the V11's finely-tuned carbon-fiber dish. The HD11-derived robotic drive gives a single V11 antenna greater reliability than multiple antenna systems.
The new KVH satellite communications system taps into a satellite broadband network of high-capacity Ku-band satellite transponders when traversing the world’s most populated areas. The V11 VSAT automatically switches to legacy C-band transponders if geography or weather disrupts the Ku-band. Transmissions on both bands are channeled through a military-grade modem to ensure that on-board applications run smoothly
CA Clase is the biggest marine electronics distributor in the UK's commercial and leisure marine markets.
It is a licensed distributor of KVH's world-leading on-board satellite communications systems, which now includes and features the brand new V11 dual-band mini-VSAT system.
