Intellian: v60G

The Intellian v60G is a fully integrated 60cm Ku-band stabilized maritime VSAT system that acquires and locks onto the satellite without requiring a separate input from the ship’s gyro-compass. This allows you to have a reliable, “always-on” broadband connection at sea.

The Intellian v60G is a fully integrated 60cm Ku-band stabilized maritime VSAT system that acquires and locks onto the satellite without requiring a separate input from the ship’s gyro-compass. This allows you to have a reliable, “always-on” broadband connection at sea.

Just like the v60, the v60G has compact radome design so smaller vessels can fit the system even with space constraints. The v60G has an unlimited azimuth range for continuous tracking without unwrapping the cables in the antenna. The wide elevation range from -10° to 100° enables the v60G to have seamless signal reception while the vessel is traveling near the Equator or Polar Regions.

With its 3-axis stabilization platform, the v60G has superior tracking performance that is nearly equal to the 1 meter grade VSAT antenna system. The v60G can be configured for SCPC, broadband or hybrid satellite networks. It is suitable for high-speed internet, weather & chart updates, email, file and image transfer, video conference, VoIP, VPNs and database backup. The v60G is designed and built to meet or exceed industry and military standards for vibration, shock and EMC to ensure greatest reliability in any sea conditions.

The v60G has a built-in GPS for fast satellite acquisition and auto polarization control for optimizing the signal strength of a linear polarization feed. The v60G is the ultimate choice for mariners who are seeking a commercial-grade broadband experience with a compact, robust and cost-effective solution.
