Raytheon Introduces Newest SatCom For Fishing And Pleasure Craft

Raytheon Marine Company has introduced the new, compact JUE- 35B SatCom for fishing and pleasure craft as well as oceangoing ships. It provides 24-hour global maritime communications by telephone, telex, and facsimile, as well as data transmission for special applications.

The JUE-35B INMARSAT Ship Earth Station, manufactured by Japan Radio Company, one of the world's largest manufacturers of shipboard satellite communications terminals, is available exclusively from Raytheon in the United States, Mexico, and Scandinavian countries.

The JUE-35B SatCom is similar to the popular JUE-35A SatCom except for its above deck equipment.

The new model has a patented single flywheel antenna stabilization system, rather than conventional, more expensive, vertical gyro-stabilization systems. The new antenna system has been thoroughly tested at sea and has demonstrated reliability surpassing the 45,000-Hour Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) established by its predecessor, the JUE-35A.

The antenna measures 55.6 inches (139 cm) in diameter. It houses a 35.6-inch-diameter (89 cm) antenna dish. The ADE weighs only 330 pounds (150 kg).

The JUE-35B SatCom video display unit features a 14-inch CRT, with large, easy-to-read characters 32-Kbyte memory (expandable to 128-Kbyte) full word-processor capabilities, telex message editing, and abbreviated automatic dialing for both telex and telephone calls.

The memory is capacitor protected against memory loss due to transient power failure.

Raytheon's worldwide service network is fully trained to service the JRC SatCom as well as Raytheon's full line of navigation and communications equipment.
