2.1 SAILOR 100 GX system
2.1.1 Overview
The SAILOR 100 GX is a unique stabilized maritime GX antenna system operating in the Ka-
band (19.2 to 30 GHz). It is used with the Global Xpress service from Inmarsat, delivering
consistent high-performance download speeds of up to 50 Mbps and 5 Mbps over the
uplink. The following figure shows the coverage map of the GX service.
The system requires a single 50 Ohm coaxial cable to provide the Above Deck Unit (ADU)
with both DC power, data and control information. The radome does not have to be
removed neither before nor after the installation. To protect the ADU the built-in motors
act as brakes during transport and when the ADU is not powered. You can access the
SAILOR 100 GX remotely and make in-depth performance analysis using the built-in web
interface. The following figure shows the SAILOR 100 GX system.
