ORBIT Showcases its Latest Satellite Communications Systems at Marintec China 2011

SHANGHAI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

ORBIT Communication Systems, Inc., a provider of mission-critical connectivity solutions in a variety of markets, including satellite communications, tracking and telemetry, and communications management systems, will showcase its Maritime VSAT Satellite Communications systems product line at Marintec China 2011. The maritime conference and exhibition starts today at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre and will run through December 2, 2011.

At Marintech China, ORBIT will demonstrate a diverse portfolio of Maritime VSAT Satellite Communications systems for leisure, commercial and defense applications, including:

• OrBand™ (AL-7107) / C-Band / Ku-Band Maritime VSAT
  OrBand leverages breakthrough technology to deliver RF performance equivalent to industry-standard systems, in a much smaller footprint. Industry-standard systems feature a 3.8m (150”) radome, while OrBand features an extraordinarily compact 2.7m (106”) radome, requiring substantially less deck space. OrBand is also 30% lighter than competitive solutions. Small enough to be shipped as a single, fully assembled and tested unit in a standard 20 foot container, OrBand drastically lowers costs and time for shipping and installation.

• OrSat™ (AL-7103) / Ku-Band / X-Band Maritime VSAT
  OrSat is a high-performance maritime stabilized VSAT system that enables high-speed, two-way broadband communications for mission-critical and data-hungry applications that are vital to boosting operational productivity and crew morale. A field-proven, uniquely designed system, OrSat sets the standard for high availability, stabilization, RF performance and ease of operation. Providing always-on connectivity under the most severe sea conditions, OrSat enables myriad applications and IT solutions including voice calls, fax, email, web browsing, videoconferencing, extended organizational network capabilities, and remote support, while meeting stringent regulations and keeping costs under control.

ORBIT will be available to discuss and demonstrate its latest VSAT offerings in booth #3B15.
