Intellian antennas approved for Eutelsat KONNECT VHTS service

Intellian’s latest maritime antennas have been granted Type Approval for operation on Eutelsat’s KONNECT VHTS satellite network.

The approval for the v100NX and v240MT 2 antennas expands access to Eutelsat’s KONNECT VHTS 500 Gbps capacity Ka-band services for maritime users, including merchant, cruise, ferry, and oil and gas.

The v240MT 2 is the first 2.4-metre Tri-Band maritime terminal to gain approval on KONNECT VHTS. Intellian’s Intelligent Mediator 8 is used to deliver automated switching between Ka- and Ku-band frequencies, allowing roaming between KONNECT VHTS and other Eutelsat services for hybrid connectivity.

“Our collaboration with Eutelsat to certify these market-leading solutions marks another significant advancement in our strategic partnership with Eutelsat,” said Ben Swallow, Chief Commercial Officer, Intellian Technologies.

“The addition of the v100NX and v240MT 2 to Eutelsat’s GEO user terminal portfolio of Intellian products, joins our OW Parabolic and Flat Panel Series of products for Eutelsat’s OneWeb LEO network.”

“Our OneWeb portfolio is the biggest from a single manufacturer and offers an unmatched level of flexibility and performance for customers requiring very dependable business-critical connectivity in highly demanding environments.”
