Intellian v240C VSAT Marine Antenna System (VC1-241-P)

Intellian v240 VSAT Marine Antenna System (VC1-240)
The v240C VSAT C-band antenna is ideally suited to provide superb signal clarity from any airtime services provider, in any ocean, even in extreme latitudes. The rugged composition and sturdy design of the antenna and components provides seamless internet, data and voice communications. Intellian's patented Automatic Polarization Switching control feature offers Linear and Circular or Linear only, Circular only a manual change. High gain RF performance, Wide Elevation Angle (-15? ~ +120 degrees), Ship's Gyrocompass and GPS interfaces and the 3-axis stabilization provide secure connectivity for your application needs.

Intellian's v240C supports Automatic Beam Switching via iDirect OpenAMIP & ROSS Open Antenna Management (ROAM) protocols. For remote monitoring and control onboard, the v240C features Wi-Fi access via the ACU and Bluetooth connectivity via the antenna. The v240C requires minimal involvement to commission systems using existing radomes.

Intellian v-Series antennas offer exceptional value and superior RF performance in their respective model standards to ensure that they meet a wide variety of compliance requirements worldwide, all Intellian v-Series equipment meet or exceed FCC and ETSI specifications as well as EN60950, R&TTE, DNV 2.4 Class C and MILSTD-167 specifications.

The v240C VSAT communication system is compatible with service providers using the iDirect, Hughes, Comtech, and SatLink modems. Additional modem networks are continually being added to our scope of connection. The built-in Antenna Control Unit (ACU) Web Interface provides Remote IP access and system diagnosis, eliminating the need for an engineer to attend the vessel to perform routine maintenance and setup parameters. Intellian v-Series system components can be accessed, monitored, and controlled from any web based location in the world. Uplogix compatible, the benefits to end users are reduced operational costs, faster resolution when issues arise and improved security and compliance vs. centralized only management.

All Intellian v-Series antennas are equipped with Wide Elevation Search angles with Automatic Skew Angle Control and unlimited azimuth (no cable un-wrap) for uninterrupted and seamless data communication. This exceptional VSAT system is designed to support single and multi-band LNBs (including Intellian's exclusive PLL Global LNB), both cross-pol and co-pol feeds, various BUC options (25W to 60W) as well as a Dual Mediator option for expanded redundancy and fail safe applications.

Automatic polarization switching
Featuring patented technology available only on select Intellian models, the v240C allows you to effortlessly and automatically switch between linear and circular c-band polarization, wherever you go, with ease and convenience. Simply select a polarization from the ACU or PCbased control software, and the unit does the rest of the work for you, auto-adjusting itself to receive the desired signal.

Wide elevation angle
The v240C’s wide-look angle pedestal design is excellently suited for extremely low or high latitude areas, such as the Scandinavian Peninsula or the Equatorial regions. Empower your vessel with the ability to travel far and wide, without the worry of signal loss!

Motor brakes

Motor brakes on the elevation and cross-level components prevent dish damage from sudden movements and/or shock when the unit is powered off, in transport, or in storage.

Supports various types of BUCs from 25W to 200W

All BUCs can be mounted on the antenna pedestal easily using the flexible mounting bracket and flexible waveguide design.  Saves additional installation cost and integration time.

Web-based remote control management

A Web-based monitoring and Control UI are available through a web server that is included in the ACU.

For customers who are currently operating a NOC (Network Operations Center) with the addition of the antenna control module to network control program, the overall control of the network is possible

Designed to maximize RF performance

The main reflector, feed-horn and other RF parts are designed to maximize the antenna performance in a maritime application.  The gain and Maximum Allowed EIRP Density are at the highest level amongst the similar-sized VSAT antennas

Easy installation, setup and operation
With the v240C, installation and setup are easier than ever. Once a satellite’s peak signal position is acquired during first-time setup, the unit will automatically re- adjust accordingly every time it boots (bow, home sensor offset, azimuth, and elevation position), saving you huge amounts of time and effort.

Antenna dome features
The v240C antenna dome is combined with 12 panels which makes easier to assemble than equivalent products. The unit comes with an optional temperature control assembly that automatically provides the dome enclosure’s interior with air conditioned cooling as needed. No matter what the temperature is outside the dome, you can rest assured that the unit will be fully functioning under optimal temperature conditions inside the dome.
