ST Electronics Showcases Agilis Ultra-Lite Series of Ka-band Block-Up Converters to Capture Growing Demand in High Throughput Satellite Services May 30, 2016 ST Electronics announced the introduction of an ultra-lite series of Ka-band Block-Up Converters (BUCs). The growth in High Throughput Satellite (HTS) applications has created increased requirements for smaller and lighter equipment, especially in the mobility markets of maritime, aero, and land communications. Designed with a focus on SWAP (Size, Weight, and Power), the ultra-lite Ka-band series provides the smallest and lightest family of BUCs available today. The series consists of 3 Ka-band BUCs: 25W (2.9kg), 40W (4.9kg) and 110W (9.9kg). "Mobility applications, both commercial and government, will become the core of the HTS applications within the next 10 years. This ultra-lite series of BUCs was designed to meet the continued demand for higher speed and always on availability," said Mr Rajanik Mark Jayasuriya, Vice President, Satellite Networks Business Group, ST Electronics (Satcom & Sensor Systems). |
