INTRODUCTION
Introduction to Intellian v60
The Intellian v60 is a 60-centimeter (23.6-inch) Ku-band, three-axis stabilized VSAT
antenna system capable of receiving SCPC, MCPC, TDMA or Spread Spectrum
transmissions. Designed for ocean vessels in the recreational, commercial or oil
and gas market segments, as well as military vessels, the v60 offers "always on"
high-quality broadband communications, in even the roughest weather and sea
conditions.
The v60 provides seamless, uninterrupted broadband connectivity for worldwide
on-demand communications, is compatible with a comprehensive list of service
providers and ensures professional mariners and yacht owners reliable, unlimited
connectivity at sea.
The v60 offers a wide minus 10-degrees to plus 100-degrees elevation range and
unlimited azimuth, eliminating cable wrap and the lengthy loss of signal connection
as the system unwinds. It is ideal for mission critical operations, such as surveillance
or vessel monitoring, that require uninterrupted connectivity, or in Voice over Internet
Protocol (VOIP) communication and information downloads where signal loss is
unacceptable.
An open platform, the v60 is compatible with any modem and supports 4-,
6- and 8-Watt BUCs, providing owners the flexibility to choose the service and
communications speeds that is right for their needs. The new antenna embraces
Intellian's design philosophy that simplicity equals reliability.
The unit is designed to making it easier for owners, operators and installers to add
new features when updating firmware, and even offers a "roll back" function that
resets the firmware to a previous version. The v60 offers seamless remote monitoring
and control and a power switch on the ACU's front panel for your convenience.

Planning the Installation
Selection of Antenna Installation Site
Install the antenna in accordance with the following procedures to insure maximum
performance of the antenna. The ideal antenna site has a clear view of the horizon
or satellite all around. Please be sure there are no obstacles within 15º above the
center of the antenna. Any obstacles can prevent the antenna from transmitting and
receiving the satellite signal.
Do not install the antenna near by the radar especially on the same plane as their
energy levels may overload the antenna front-end circuits. It is recommended to
position the antenna at least 4 feet (1.2 m) above or below the level of the radar and
minimum of 15 feet (4.6 m) away from the high power short wave radars.
The mounting platform should be rigid enough and not subjected to excessive
vibration. The movement of the antenna can be minimized by installing at the
center of the vessel. If these conditions can be only partially satisfied, find the best
compromised installation site between the various considerations.
Elevation Limit
of Obstacles
15°
Configure Radiation Hazard/Blockage Zones
It is important to setup the radiation hazard or blockage zones for Intellian VSAT
communication systems. The ACU can be programmed with relative azimuth and
elevation sectors to create up to five zones where transmit power would endanger
personnel who are frequently in that area or blockage exists. Several things happen
when the antenna is within one of these zones.
1. “BLOCK” will be displayed on the ACU screen.
2. Tracking continues as long as the signal level is greater than the predefined
threshold value. When the signal level drops below the threshold value the
antenna will wait “Search Wait Time” parameter amount of time and re-target the
satellite you targeted last. The antenna will continue to re-target the satellite until
the satellite is re-acquired and tracking can be resumed.
3. A transmit inhibit output from the ACU will disable/mute the modem transmit.

INSTALLING THE ANTENNA
System Cables
Before installing the system cables, you need to take the following points into
consideration.
1. All cables need to be well clamped and protected from physical damage and
exposure to heat and humility.
2. Cable with an acute bend is not allowed.
3. Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deck head, a watertight
gland or swan neck tube should be used.
• RF Cable (Customer Furnished)
Due to the voltage losses across the length of the RF coaxes at L-Band, Intellian
recommends the following 50 ohm coax cable types for standard system installations.
For cable runs longer than 120 meters, please consult Intellian Technologies.
Intellian provides a N to F type adapter to connect 75 ohm coaxial cables.
