ORBIT Communication Systems has been awarded a follow-on contract for the delivery of its new OceanTRx4 maritime satellite communication systems to an undisclosed Asian customer.

Orbit CEO Ofer Greenberger said: "By deploying OceanTRx, the Asian navy [customer] will continue to benefit from Orbit’s cutting-edge performance and support, which enable reliable and cost-effective high throughput broadband data communications on board their ships."

"The OceanTRx4 supports a broad range of mission-critical applications."

The 1.15m VSAT antenna system aims to support multi-band frequency configurations including X, Ku and Ka bands, as well as a range of BUC power levels.

Featuring inherent field upgradeability, improved RF performance and dynamic response under virtually any sea conditions, the OceanTRx4 supports a broad range of mission-critical applications.

The design reportedly delivers enhanced performance and significant competitive advantages.
