SINGAPORE – ORBIT Communication Systems has introduced the AL-7107 OrBand VSAT maritime system.

OrBand combines a compact 2.7 m (9 ft) footprint with RF performance (equivalent to an industry-standard 2.4 m system). The system supports extended C-Band and extended Ku-band frequencies, as well as several RF feeds featuring electrically switchable linear and circular polarizations.

The company says due to its compact size, a pre-assembled and tested OrBand system and its random fit into a 20-ft (6-m) container, reducing shipping costs and allowing for shorter deployment times. The system features advanced remote access capabilities for monitoring and remote diagnostics.
