Sea Tel continues to innovate in 2012
Satellite communications company Sea Tel has already introduced its 4012 GX Antenna, a development from the popular 4009, and its range of FX FleetBroadband terminals. These products have been introduced just after the launch of a number of Sea Tel products at the end of 2011.…
Satellite communications company Sea Tel has developed and expanded its already wide range of products in 2012, already seeing the introduction of a number of products for the superyacht industry.
Atul Chawla, product and marketing manager at Sea Tel, told SuperyachtNews.com, “from a superyacht perspective, Sea Tel’s key activities are around aesthetics and performance.”
Sea Tel’s first new product in 2012 is the 4012 GX Antenna. The 4012 has been developed from the popular 1m system, the 4009 antenna. “The best just got better,” Chawla told SuperyachtNews.com.
The 4012 is upgradable from Ku-band to the higher-frequency Ka-band, a technology Sea Tel has been working on since 1998: “We’ve been practicing this for many years now,” commented Chawla.
Furthermore, with the 4012 GX Antenna, if its user wishes to upgrade to Ka-Band, there is no need to change the radome. The 4012 GX Antenna, with its web-based interface, will be available this month.
Sea Tel is also in the process of launching its Sea Tel FX FleetBroadband, a range of FleetBroadband terminals: FX 150, FX 250 and FX 500. The fleet will match the TV antenna radomes, which Chawla said is “a big differentiator for the leisure market, where they like the two radomes to match.”
The FX 500 will be shown at Satellite 2012 next week.
These new initiatives in 2012 come shortly after Sea Tel’s launch of 3 products at the end of last year. The first, the Sea Tel 6011 QOR – a global C-band or regional Ku-band TV-at-sea services, which allows yacht owners to watch TV nearly anywhere in the world. The second, the Sea Tel ST60, which is similar to the 6011 QOR though only uses C-band networks. And the third, the Sea Tel 9711 QOR, the same combination of C-band and Ku-band services but for transmit and receive systems.
For Sea Tel this is just the start of a year that will see even more new productions. “There are certain [new] initiatives that we will be announcing in about three months from now,” said Chawla.
