As an approved Inmarsat Government GX satellite service provider in both commercial and military Ka-band frequencies, DataPat can offer customers complete solutions pairing high-throughput connectivity, either on-demand or at a fixed monthly subscription price, with its field proven line of Portable Satellite Terminals.  DataPath has previously achieved Inmarsat full Type Approval for use on GX's military Ka-band frequencies for the company's CCT120 and CCT200 fly-away terminals, DA120 drive-away terminal and STT 208 trailer-based antenna systems.



Introduced to the market last fall, the QCT90 man-pack terminal was designed for both simplicity and ruggedness in order to deliver quick, reliable connectivity in remote locations.  The 90-cm antenna's carbon fiber reflector and cast magnesium frame allow for maximum durability while maintaining light weight.  The system's fully integrated design avoids loose cables and includes a GPS-enabled graphical user interface (GUI) to allow an operator to take the antenna from case to connection within three minutes.  For ultra-portability, the QCT90 fits into a single back-pack style case.

"To ensure the success of their missions, our customers must count on their communications partners to deliver reliable, comprehensive solutions," said David Myers, President & CEO of DataPath.  "We are excited to work with Inmarsat to provide easy-to-use and cost effective end-to-end communications solutions that combine not only terminals and high-throughput Inmarsat connectivity, but also our MaxView® Enterprise™ network management software, advanced network mobility products, 24 x 7 cyber security services, and professional and field support services."
