Connect v60E
65cm Ku-band Maritime VSAT Antenna System
Efficient RF Performance
AMI Connect’s advanced RF design technology delivers highly efficient performance with compact and light mechanical structure compared to other 65 cm class systems. The v60E has improved tracking precision and reliability in a compact and streamlined mechanical design. The v60E system is only supplied with NJRC 6W BUC.
Connect Coverage NX Intelligent Diagnosis
AMI Connect’s all-new integrated M&C platform Connect Coverage NX provides a responsive web user interface to manage and control the antenna system regardless of device types. The Installation Wizard in Connect Coverage NX automates functions for system configuration so that operators are minimally involved in system installation and operation.
Single Coaxial Cable
Combined Tx, Rx and DC power in a Single Cable solution, the v60E enables faster and cost efficient installation. The single coaxial cable is connected externally on the base of radome with no need to access the inside of the radome.
Standardized Modular Components Across E-Series
Modular components are used throughout the E-Series product range, such as motors with integrated encoders, main control unit and internal cables. Sharing common modules across AMI Connect’s E-series antenna systems, the number of spare parts is reduced by more than 30%.
