MACKAY

Circle 67 on Reader Service Card

Mackay Communications, of

Edison, N.J., is marketing the new- est addition to the SATURN family of Inmarsat products, the marine version of the Standard-M, manu- factured by ABB Nera. The family already includes A and C terminals for portable, land-based and ma- rine applications.

The fully digitalized Saturn-M provides access to the domestic and international telephone network for voice, data and fax operation.

All functional controls on the

Saturn-M are carried out from the advanced handset with integral al- phanumeric display. A single coax cable between the below decks and above decks equipment ensures quick and simple installation.

MAGNAVOX

Circle 58 on Reader Service Card

Manavox Electronic Systems

Company, of Torrance, Calif., is introducing a marine satellite tele- phone terminal that provides de- pendable global ship-shore commu- nications for boats as small as 40 feet, bringing the technology within reach of workboats, charter yachts, commercial and sport fishing boats and other small vessels.

The MX 3400 MAGNAPhone-M is one of the first new generation ultra-small marine satellite tele- phone terminals using the

Inmarsat-M digital voice service.

The MAGNAPhone-M antenna as- sembly weights 85 lbs and the radome is 30 inches. Working like a shore-based telephone, the sys- tem automatically keeps the an- tenna pointed towards the appro- priate satellite once it is switched on and initialized. Calling from ship-to-shore, or vice versa, is sim- ply a matter of dialing in the num- ber. The system can also support 2,400-bps modem and fax interface.
