Delivery of the company's OceanTRx 7 Multiband terminals, which support both C/Ka and Ku/Ka frequency bands for continuous broadband connectivity aboard cruise ships, is expected in 2018 and 2019.

"We launched our 2.2-meter multiband maritime terminal just last month," said Eitan Livneh, Orbit's CEO. "Since then, the influx of orders is the best technological and commercial validation we could ask for."
