1.1 SAILOR XTR GX-R2 system
The SAILOR XTR GX-R2 is a unique stabilized maritime GX antenna system operating in
the Ka-band (17.7 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 XTR GX-R2 remotely and make in-depth performance analysis using
the built-in web interface.
