It features one-touch network acquisition for immediate operation even in the most demanding and high-pressure conflict regions and is optimized for low power consumption to maximize mission duration for up to five hours on external batteries depending on usage. With auto detected Resilient Global Navigation Satellite System (R-GNSS), it enables external support of an Alternative Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (Alt-PNT) to ensure operation in GPS-denied environments.
Built to battlefield-ready specifications, the Manpack is designed for Ingress Protection (IP67), as well as the U.S. Military Standards for Environmental Engineering (MIL-STD-810H) and Electromagnetic Compatibility (MIL-STD-461). This ensures exceptional durability for Communications-On-The-Pause (COTP) to personnel on front lines and mission-critical operations.
Eric Sung, CEO at Intellian Technologies said, “Our military-grade Manpack addresses the rapidly evolving demands of defense users for resilient OneWeb LEO connectivity. It’s a critical addition to our portfolio of OneWeb solutions across maritime, land fixed and land mobility, and will deliver essential global connectivity for military personnel, NGOs, and enterprise customers who require uncompromising durability and performance.”
Steve Mills, Eutelsat’s Vice President for Global Government said, “We’re pleased to be expanding our user terminal portfolio with the addition of a manpack solution. Thanks to Intellian’s expertise and innovation, this development strengthens the ability of our OneWeb constellation to immediately provide reliable, portable and innovative connectivity options to government and defense users, and we look forward to bringing this solution to our partners together.”
