Intellian opens new
Advanced Development Center to enable
advancement of flat panel antenna and terminal
technology
Intellian Technologies, has
announced the opening of their new Advanced
Development Center (ADC) in Maryland, USA.
Situated in the heart of what’s known as
‘Satellite Valley’, with many key satellite
network partners close by, the ADC is the main
design and engineering hub for Intellian’s flat
panel antenna and terminal technologies. With
ever-increasing interest from enterprise,
government and maritime customers for phased
array antennas, the development of this product
portfolio is a key growth and expansion for
Intellian.
ADC is a research and
development center, hosting a number of top
industry talent ranging from RF engineering,
electrical engineering, mechanical engineering
and validation engineering for product
development of phased array antennas and user
terminals, growing to a team of 70+ by Q4 2023.
The continuation expansion of the team also puts
a stake in the ground in terms of guaranteeing
the scalability of the ADC, ensuring there is
the talent pool to deliver against the plans.
The ADC has
state-of-the-art facilities to support the
design of exceptional antennas and terminals,
such as a near field scanner chamber, compact
antenna test range, electrical lab, mechanical
lab, and environmental test lab. The new center
also has several integration labs to host the
validation and type approval test campaigns with
various partners’ products, keeping them
separate to maintain customer confidentiality.
A key differentiator,
Intellian is a vertically integrated product
company with the flat panel engineering team
designing the technology in ADC, with fully
automated in-house manufacturing taking place at
Intellian’s Campus 2, in Korea. With facilities
built for the mass production of flat panel user
terminals for fixed enterprise, land mobility,
maritime, government and defense customers, the
teams seamlessly work on the entire product
concept and development, through to delivery and
after-sales care.
Hai Tang, Senior VP of the
ADC said: “The opening of this new center
represents a crucial step in our development and
productization strategy. Our newly formed team
is enthusiastically primed to take Intellian to
the next level in flat panel technology with
seamless integration of RF/IF/DIF and modem
technologies as the next big fusion in the
satcom industry to further drive down size,
weight, power, and cost of our solutions.
We have demonstrated our flat panel
product maturity by operating continuously over
the OneWeb constellation as part of our
long-term test validation campaign.
We are highly confident that the new ADC
in Maryland will allow us to remain at the
forefront of technological innovation in the
industry. The scalability and expansion
opportunities at the site will allow Intellian
to drive change, continue to advance, and work
as an industry leader to provide consistent,
reliable, and accessible communications for
all.”
