March 10, 2025 – Orbit Communication Systems Ltd., a leading global provider of maritime, land and airborne SATCOM solutions, tracking ground stations, and mission-critical communication systems, is set to unveil its new OrBeam MILElectronically Steerable Antenna (ESA) at Satellite DC 2025. This cutting-edge phased array antenna is designed to meet the growing demand for continuous, reliable satellite communications across LEO, MEO, and GEO orbits.
With the rapid increase in satellite constellations and the evolving needs of defense, commercial, and enterprise users, Orbit’s OrBeam MIL ESA delivers an agile, multi-orbit solution that requires no user intervention. The system’s electronically controlled beam steering allows seamless connectivity with multiple satellites, enhancing operational efficiency and uninterrupted communication across the most challenging environments.
The new antenna supports Ka or Ku frequencies and is designed for seamless connectivity with GEO, MEO, and LEO satellites. Its flat-panel design with no moving parts ensures lower power consumption and high reliability, while its compact and lightweight structure enables fast deployment across aerial, maritime, and land-based platforms. The system is capable of Make-Before-Break (MBB) satellite handovers, providing solutions for high-speed, uninterrupted low-latency satellite communications.
“As the satellite communication landscape evolves at an unprecedented pace, Orbit continues to push the boundaries of innovation,” said Daniel Eshchar, CEO of Orbit. “Our new OrBeam MIL ESA system represents a breakthrough in multi-orbit connectivity, providing defense and commercial customers with a highly reliable, low power consumption, and future-ready SATCOM solutions.”
