Intellian Unveils
the New v100NX

ntellian has announced details of the
v100NX, an all-new 1m Ku- to Ka-band
convertible maritime VSAT terminal.
Intellian's latest NX series antenna is
designed to simplify and streamline the VSAT
lifecycle, enabling access to multiple global
satellite communication services, providing
the connectivity required to leverage new
efficiency and welfare enhancing digital
applications.
The Intellian v100NX is a 1m dual-band
convertible antenna, future-proof through its
GEO, MEO and LEO constellation tracking
capabilities. It also features an optimized
reflector and radome designed to perform
efficiently across 2.5GHz wideband Ka
network services in the future.
"As a highly adaptable, future-proof system,
the v100NX provides the most advanced,
yet cost-effective platform to leverage new
connected applications vital to stay efficient
and competitive today and tomorrow," says
Eric Sung, CEO, Intellian.
The v100NX uses a single coaxial cable
combining Tx, Rx, and DC power, simplifying
the installation process. Its standardized
modular components lower the total cost
of ownership by streamlining on-board
maintenance and increasing reliability,

The Intellian v100NX

while the shared common modules provide
additional value by reducing spare part
stock requirements for service providers,
and by enabling a faster repair time for the
end-customer.
Intellian's upgraded antenna management
and control platform, the new AptusNX
software, includes an installation wizard
with a step-by-step commissioning guide
for easier setup. Its user-friendly, automated
functions minimize operators' inputs for cable
loss compensation, improve line-up testing,
as well as remote diagnosis, as the platform
sends alerts when predictive maintenance
is required. The Intellian v100NX will be
commercially available next month.

Airbus to Build Multimission
Satellite for MEASAT

EASAT has selected Airbus to build
MEASAT-3d, a new multimission
telecommunications satellite to replace
capacity and augment its core business in
Malaysia, Asia, Middle East and Africa.
Positioned at 91.5°E collocated with
MEASAT-3b, also built by Airbus, MEASAT3d will deliver improved performances
to progressively replace MEASAT-3 and
MEASAT-3a, supporting Asia's premium DTH
video distribution.
Planned to launch in 2021, MEASAT-3d will
provide C and Ku-band capacity for DTH,
video distribution and telecommunication
services. The new HTS Ka-band mission
features multiple user spot beams
optimized to deliver high speed broadband
communications over Malaysia to bridge the
digital divide in the country.
Dr Edmund Kong, MEASAT's Chief
Technology Officer, says: "We are
delighted to once again appoint Airbus
as the manufacturer of MEASAT's eighth
communication satellite. With MEASAT-3d,
MEASAT reaffirms its commitment to provide
core infrastructure for the Malaysian ICT and
broadcast industry. Collocated with MEASAT-

3a and MEASAT-3b at 91.5°E, MEASAT-3d
will serve the growth requirements of 4G
and 5G mobile networks in Malaysia while
continuing to provide redundancy and
additional distribution capacity for video in
HD, 4K and ultimately 8K in the Asia-Pacific
region."
Arnaud de Rosnay, Head of Telecom
Satellites at Airbus, says: "MEASAT has
selected Airbus again to build their new
multimission satellite which will be based on
our highly reliable Eurostar E3000 product.
There are already 46 E3000 satellites
operating successfully in orbit and Airbus is
committed to providing innovative and "bestin-class" satellite solutions to enable MEASAT
to be the operator of choice in the region."

Ekinops and VMware Create
Virtualization Platform

Gilat Leads the Way in
Shipments of Cellular
Backhaul over Satellite

kinops has partnered with VeloCloud, now
part of VMware, to create a virtualization
platform targeted for telecom operators and
service providers.
The collaboration combines VMware SDWAN by VeloCloud with Ekinops' OneAccessbranded Open Virtualization Platform (OVP)
and OneManage Provisioning and Monitoring
system in a pre-validated and fully integrated
solution.
The OneAccess OVP Design Studio
and OneManage software enable service
providers to offer enterprise customers
a range of new services running on an
Ekinops vCPE or on a universal CPE. Those
services may include certified VNFs such as
vRouters, SD-WANs, vFirewalls, vSBC and
WAN optimization functions as well as simple
virtualized Linux or Windows servers. In this
context, leveraging Ekinops OneManage and
Design Studio allows service providers to
expand their services to the edges of their
network with agility and control and deliver
fast virtual network design and end-to-end
zero touch provisioning.

Philippe Moulin, Chief Operating Officer in
charge of Access Products and Services at
Ekinops, says: "Over the last few months,
we have seen significant demand for a uCPE
solution driven by enterprise customers
interested in SD-WAN, server consolidation
at the branch and a strong need for multinational deployments."
VMware SD-WAN by VeloCloud delivers
visibility of network and application
performance, enabling network optimization
over multiple WAN connections in a hybrid
global enterprise network environment. It
provides enhanced Quality of Experience to
end users through network optimization and
the simplicity of a centralized management
while 'masking' the complexity of the
underlying WAN infrastructure. The combined
platform offers additional flexibility to host
third-party VNFs without compromising the
simplicity and efficiency of a centralized
management solution.
