A CLASE LAUNCHES THE AMAZING KVH TRACPHONE
V7
Southampton Boat Show, 14th-23rd
September 2007
Stand G091
C A Clase introduces the revolutionary TracPhone
V7 from KVH, a marine communications system
which brings the same high quality broadband
connection available on-shore to smaller
vessels.
The new service brings together always-on
broadband data connections, multiple Voice-over
IP telephone lines and reasonable service
costs thanks to mini-VSAT Broadband's modern
spread spectrum satellite technology. The
below decks control unit has a ground breaking
modem, offering user friendly operation
and razor sharp system speed.
Users will enjoy seamless roaming in European,
North Atlantic and USA/ Caribbean cruising
grounds within a wide footprint, as well
as some west coast and South American coastal
areas.
The small 60cm (24") KVH antenna is
a fraction of the size of the standard one
metre VSAT system and therefore provides
the ability to position the unit in limited
space. In addition, the antenna is a stunning
75% lighter than standard antennas, ideal
for mounting on yachts where weight is critical.
Data speeds of 512 Kbps uploading and 2
Mbps for downloads are equivalent to having
a cable modem at sea. Considerable effort
has been made to ensure the system has manageable
running costs for smaller vessels with a
flexible cost structure offering always-on
fixed rate or pay for what is used.
The size and weight of the antenna makes
the TracPhone V7 simple to install with
standard equipment and as the unit has automatic,
stabilized, GPS-enabled skew control that
adjusts to the boat's movement, it does
not need to be connected to the boats gyro
compass.
The KVH TracPhone V7 is a powerful and robust
system that provides rock-steady connections
and withstands the harshest conditions at
sea. Hampshire based C A Clase is the exclusive
distributor of KVH products into the UK
and launches this unique system at the Southampton
Boat Show 2007.
