Intellian Achieves Inmarsat GX Type Approval

Intellian Technologies has been announced as one of the world’s first manufacturers to receive type approval from the Inmarsat engineering team for the supply of two maritime terminals for the new Global Xpress® (GX) network.

Intellian has been working with Inmarsat for 3 years to develop both the 65cm Intellian GX60 and the larger 1m Intellian GX100 VSAT terminals. Inmarsat engineers type approved both Intellian terminals after they successfully completed stringent live system tests at sea on the Inmarsat GX network.

Eric Sung CEO of Intellian commented: “This is an important milestone in our company’s progress. We have worked closely with Inmarsat to develop these revolutionary terminals which in conjunction with Inmarsat’s GX network have been shown to provide true broadband with superfast throughput. Working alongside Inmarsat has ensured that we are among the world’s first manufacturers to be able to offer fully approved and tested terminals for Inmarsat’s ground-breaking GX service.”

Announced earlier in 2014, the Intellian GX60 and GX100 include the all-new Intellian GX Below Deck Unit (BDU) which features a GX core module fully integrated within the system. Intellian GX terminals also feature Intellian’s innovative and user-friendly One-Touch commissioning which dramatically reduces installation time.

Intellian continues to lead in technology and research in order to provide operators with the most reliable and superfast broadband communications at sea.
