Description
Continuous Fleet Xpress Connectivity
The GX100NX Dual System is designed specifically for Inmarsat Fleet Xpress services, delivering broadband connectivity over the Global Xpress Ka-band satellite network. Its dual antenna architecture provides greater service continuity by allowing the system to maintain satellite visibility even when one antenna is temporarily obstructed by a vessel's mast, funnel, or other superstructure.
Dual Antenna Reliability
Unlike a single antenna installation, the dual system uses two stabilized GX100NX antennas working together through an NX Antenna Control Unit. This configuration improves operational resilience and is well suited for vessels where uninterrupted communications support navigation, business operations, crew welfare, and mission-critical applications.
Simplified Installation and Future-Ready Design
The GX100NX incorporates Intellian's All-In-One Below Deck Terminal, integrating the GX modem, power supply, GX Mediator, ACU functions, and Ethernet switch into a compact 1U rack-mounted unit. Installation is further simplified with AptusNX software, which automates configuration, diagnostics, cable compensation, and system commissioning.
The antenna is also designed for future commercial 2.5 GHz Ka-wideband services through its frequency-tuned radome and reflector, helping extend the service life of the installation.
