Orbit Communications Systems revealed that that systems integrator THESTA ordered additional dual-band OceanTRx 4 systems for the PGZ Group — a contractor of naval navigation, communications, and combat systems in Poland — for deployment aboard the Polish Navy’s Cormorant-Class Minehunter.

OceanTRx 4 is a rugged and innovative stabilized dual-band maritime satcom platform. It further expands Orbit’s industry-leading OceanTRx series, featuring outstanding RF performance, system availability and dynamic response under virtually any offshore conditions. Supporting the mission-critical broadband needs of navy vessels, it was designed for one-day deployment and simple updates and maintenance. Orbit’s maritime platform provides outstanding performance and high reliability, while achieving a low total cost of ownership.

“Orbit is a world leader in maritime satcom solutions for navies and the commercial sector, with several thousand systems now providing services across the seven seas,” noted Stav Gizunterman, Senior VP Business Development & Marketing at Orbit. “This repeat order from a long-term customer underscores the trend for defense organizations to turn to companies like Orbit for best-of-breed commercial systems adapted for defense applications.”
