KNS Launches another
powerful antenna
from the SuperTrack
Series
July 15th, 2014
KNS, Inc., a
market leader in
design, manufacture
and integration of
marine communication
systems, today
announced the launch
of its C-Band 2.2m
satellite antenna.
This C-Band antenna
has two variations:
Z Series for users
who want fast
Internet access at
sea and S Series to
provide the ultimate
in TV entertainment
while offshore. The
C-Band has been
built for regional
or global C-Band
beams and is ideal
for vessels with
limited space for
2.4 or 3m antennas.
Commenting on the
new smaller, 2.2m
antenna, Noah Chung,
Director of KNS,
said “We have taken
our C-Band to the
next level of marine
stabilized antenna
and promise to
provide our
customers with a
brighter future,
whether it is a
reliable fast
Internet service or
a flexible TVRO
antenna. The
new C-Band antennas
have wireless
Bluetooth
connectivity up to
100 meters from the
radome, making it
easier to upgrade
remotely and monitor
capabilities or
self-diagnose using
a paired computer to
check all the
settings and
movements of the
antenna”.
Chung adds, “We are
also excited to
announce that our
C-Band 2.2m antenna
will be deployed
using Milano
Teleport S.p.A, the
largest independent
teleport in Italy.
Its business
includes
DTH and DTT TV
Broadcasting,
Broadband Wireless
and Maritime
services worldwide”.
Like all newly
designed SuperTrack
Series antennas,
there is remote
access via a
customized web-based
software to allow
users to use a PC,
tablet, or
Smartphone to access
the antenna anywhere
in the world,
provided they have
Internet access.
This feature can
review the current
status, provide a
full diagnostic,
change a satellite
parameter, or even
update a
configuration above
deck.
The C-Band 2.2m
antenna is
pre-assembled making
it easy for
installation in just
one day. It
has a simple
mechanical structure
for easier
maintenance, an
all-in-one Power
Control Unit (PCU),
Auto Beam Switching
(ABS), built-in air
conditioner, a
carbon fiber
reflector, automatic
linear and circular
polarization.
The new standard of
maritime
communication is now
here. KNS’s own
proprietary
technology has
enabled them to
claim worldwide
leadership in this
competitive
industry.
