October 03 2017 - 4:00AM
KVH Industries, Inc., (Nasdaq:KVHI) is pleased to announce that the
top marine electronics professionals in the country have honored
two of KVH’s marine satellite antenna systems for their outstanding
performance and reliability. KVH’s
TracPhone V3-IP
received the National Marine Electronics Association’s (NMEA) 2017
Product of Excellence Award in the satellite communications antenna
category, while the
TracVision TV3 received the
2017 Product of Excellence Award in the satellite TV antenna
category.
This is the 20th consecutive year that KVH has achieved the NMEA
distinction for its TracVision satellite television antenna systems
and the 15th time that KVH’s TracPhone satellite communications
antenna systems have been recognized. The NMEA awards are presented
annually to recognize excellence in design, performance, and
reliability in marine electronics products. The winners are
selected by a vote of the members of NMEA, an industry group made
up of more than 600 companies, including manufacturers, dealers,
and boat builders.
“We are thrilled to receive this recognition from NMEA knowing
that it represents the opinion of skilled professionals who have
firsthand experience with the installation and performance of our
products, as well as those of our competitors,” says Martin Kits
van Heyningen, KVH chief executive officer. “They work with our
TracVision and TracPhone systems every day, and we consider their
recognition as the highest honor.”
KVH’s TracPhone V3-IP and its earlier variant, the TracPhone V3,
have been recognized with a NMEA product award in the satellite
communications antenna category for the past six years in a row.
The TracPhone V3-IP is a 37 cm (14.5 inch) diameter Ku-band VSAT
antenna that operates on KVH’s worldwide mini-VSAT
Broadbandsm network. The ultra-compact system meets the
increasing demand for broadband connectivity on boats, delivering
fast data speeds at low airtime costs, and with a terminal that can
be installed on boats as small as 30 feet.
The TracVision TV3 is an ultra-compact marine satellite TV
system ideal for powerboats and sailboats that cruise as far as 100
nautical miles offshore. The TV3 makes it possible for boaters to
enjoy their favorite high-definition television programming while
on the water. The compact, 37 cm (14.5 inch) diameter system
includes an IP-enabled TV-Hub for easy setup and operation, and
makes it possible to access system information from a smartphone,
tablet, or computer.
