[Satellite Today 03-26-09] Norsat launched a line of X-band low noise amplifiers (LNA), block up converters (BUC) and VSAT terminals, Norsat announced March 25.
    Norsat’s new X-Band products include the 5010XRT 10W non-inverted BUC, the X1000 LNA and the X-Band Rover VSAT system.
    “With the launch of the next generation of military satellites, users are increasingly looking to operate on X-Band frequency, especially in Europe where Ku-band capacity is in short supply. We believe that increasing our X- Band line of product offerings will increase Norsat opportunities as a key competitor in this market,” said Amiee Chan, president and CEO of Norsat, in a statement.
