WASHINGTON, D.C., Feb. 8, 2006/Satnews Daily/
— Continuing to advance satellite communications for moving vehicles,
RaySat, Inc. has introduced the StealthRay, a low-profile (5.7") antenna
designed for "Comm-on-the-Move" high-speed data services.
Developed for system integrators, enterprise,
government, military and emergency first responder teams, Rysat said the
new KU-Band satellite antenna is fully customizable for virtually any
bandwidth requirements, supports VoIP and video streaming, offers
capability with satellites worldwide, and is ideal for two-way
communications in geographically dispersed vehicles.
“Our StealthRay antenna technology combines high
performance and reliability in a 'Comm-on-the-Move' system, while
offering a low-profile footprint, cost effective design and transparent
ease of use,” says RaySat vice president of Business Development Ilan
Kaplan.
Claimed to be the world's first vehicle-based, low-profile satellite
antenna to provide two-way data communications, the StealthRay turns any
vehicle into a rolling "hot spot," enabling Internet access to laptops,
PDAs, or other devices equipped with Wi-Fi wireless networking
technology.
Raysat said the antenna is enclosed in a self-contained,
weather-resistant housing, which mounts securely to a vehicle's roof or
cargo rack. According to Kaplan, the antenna employs proprietary
technology that allows the StealthRay to automatically find the
satellite and then continue tracking the signal by adjusting the
azimuth, elevation and polarization angles, all while the vehicle is in
motion.
The StealthRay offers valuable utility across a wide range of
applications, including emergency communications, since it can provide
federal, state and local first responders and public safety authorities
with a high-speed satellite communications link independent of the
current terrestrial infrastructure which is susceptible to local service
interruptions, natural disasters and sabotage, Raysat said. Since it
does not rely on terrestrial networks, it is a unique solution for
agencies typically operating vehicles across remote geographical areas
unserved by wireless carriers.
