HorizonSat Teleports GmbH has tapped U.K. company ASC Signal Corporation to create a seven antenna, turnkey, teleport solution in Germany for $2 million. The new HorizonSat satellite teleport will improve the quality of satellite services in the United Arab Emirates.
HorizonSat Teleports is a subsidiary of U.A.E.-based satellite service provider HorizonSat. It has contracted ASC Signal to design, build, install, and maintain multiple large-aperture transmit/receive Earth station satellite antennas and custom feed systems. HorizonSat will use its new satellite teleport to access more communications satellites, allowing it to deliver better broadcast, voice, data, and IP services to their customers.
ASC Signal will provide two types of satellite antennas: 9.4 meter multi-band antenna that can access both Ku- and Ka-band frequencies, and smaller 7.6 meter antennas dedicated to the Ku-band. All of these antennas will feature feed designs specifically-engineered to meet HorizonSat’s unique technical requirements.
In addition to high-performance satellite antennas, ASC Signal will also provide its advanced Next Generation Controller (NGC) to HorizonSat. The NGC is a simplified, central control device that will allow Horizon control and operate the teleport’s antenna systems, allowing them to accurately and swiftly track multiple satellites at the same time.
A site near Munich, Germany will host the new HorizonSat teleport. The ASC Signal-designed satellite farm will support uninterrupted satellite transmission services for large corporations, telecom operators, broadcasters and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in the EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) region.
Its teleport contract with HorizonSat is the latest triumph for ASC Signal, which had been delivering greater numbers of satellite antenna for customers in Europe and across the world this 2012.
