Inmarsat
is
pleased
to

F1,
the

GX
with
Assisted
Pointing
terminals
have
received
full
type
approval
for
use
over
the
Inmarsat
Global
Xpress

network.
The
ATOM
65
GX
with
Assisted
Pointing
is
the
smallest
and
lightest
commercial
transportable
terminal
available
for
GX.
Designed
for
quick
deployment
by
users
with
minimal
training,
the
ATOM
65
GX
offers
a
powerful
flyaway
solution
to
meet
the
mobility
needs
of
users
for
a
range
of
enterprise,
NGO,
and
government
missions.
The
ATOM
65
GX
is
available
with
two
airline-compliant
rugged
cases
for
airline
check-in.
As
with
the
SKY
GX
series,
the
ATOM
65
GX
comes
standard
with
Skyware
Technologies’
proven
“DRC”
5W
RF
transceiver
providing
a
highly
reliable
and
silent
fan-free
solution
to
meet
the
rigors
of a
range
of
harsh
environmental
conditions.
The
SKY
98
and
SKY
180
fixed
terminals
have
also
received
full
type
approval
for
Global
Xpress.
With
reflector
sizes
of
98cm
and
180cm
respectively,
and
flexible
mounting
options
including
king
post
and
non-penetrating
roof
mounts,
the
SKY
GX
series
of
terminals
offers
a
cost-effective
solution
for
a
range
of
enterprise
and
governmental
applications.
The
options
in
aperture
size
provide
Inmarsat
customers
with
scalability
to
match
their
throughput,
environmental
and
service
availability
needs.
”We
are
delighted
to
be
able
to
approve
these
terminals
for
use
over
GX,”
said
Greg
Ewert,
President,
Inmarsat
Enterprise.
“Having
a
range
of
terminal
options
to
meet
the
diverse
connectivity
needs
of
our
customers,
further
complements
the
speed,
strength
and
flexibility
of
our
new
GX
service.”
Oliver Kroner, Skyware Technologies CEO, said “With the first ATOM and SKY terminals already in the hands of our VAR partners and their end user customers, we are excited to have reached this critical milestone towards providing GX end users with high quality, easy to use, terminals to complete the package.”
