Intellian K6 24 inch Ka Band Dish (Requires I6 Antenna) K2-605D

The only antenna that can bring you DIRECTV’s NCAA Mega March MadnessTM and NascarTM split-screen programming! - A smart choice for mariners to watch more than 130 HD channels and enjoy all their favorite DIRECTV programming at sea

Overview

Intellian k6® Overview

Intellian, the world leader in technical innovation, once again proves leadership by introduction the world’s first and only DIRECTV Ka-band satellite TV antenna system which is capable of tracking Ka-band satellite signal from DIRECTV’s newly launched 99°W and 103°W satellites. With its 17.7” dish, Intellian k6 is very compact and compatible with Intellian i6 as a deluxe fully integrated dual antenna system. Now mariners can enjoy HD programming from two Ka-band satellites and three Ku-band satellites at sea in exactly the same way as they do at home.

Up to now, there has not been a marine tracking antenna system anywhere that is capable of tracking DIRECTV Ka-band signal. There are three critical reasons why it is more difficult to design a Ka-band system than Ku-band system. First, the Ka-band signal is broadcast at higher frequency (18~20 GHz) than a signal in the Ku-band (10.7~12.75 GHz). Second, the beam-width of a signal in the Ka-band is much narrower than beam-width of a signal in the Ku-band. Therefore, the Ka-band antenna requires extremely precise and advanced tracking capabilities for when the vessel is moving. Finally, the Ka-band entails more complexity in terms of equipment, installation, and use by the television viewer.

The k6, with Intellian’s two patented technologies, Wide Range Search (WRS) algorithm and Dynamic Beam Tilting (DBT), and self-developed Ka-band RF components such as Ka-band LNB, Reflector and Feed-horn, has not only solved the difficulties of receiving the Ka-signal but also been optimized for maritime use. These elements are the key technologies to lead the marine industry into the new era of receiving stable and reliable Ka-band signal at sea.

* The above picture is the Intellian Dual Antenna system, i6 & K6, mounted on the boat.

Thanks to the Intellian’s exclusive all-in-one dual antenna system, DIRECTV subscribers can enjoy and switch HD channels amongst 5 satellites simultaneously without constraint. Also, the k6 comes with the Intellian newly designed 19” rack-mount Dual Antenna Control Unit (DACU) allows a hassle-free installation with its plug-and-play interface; even a starter is able to install it! The most amazing design element of the DACU is the 8 multi-connectors on the rear panel which allows the boaters to directly connect up to 8 HD satellite receivers (DIRECTV H20-600, H21-200) from different locations on the boat without the need for installing extra multi-switches and complicated wiring.

Features

Full High-Definition (HD) Channel Availability

	DirecTV Ka-band signal reception for 99˚W and 103˚W satellites which are currently broadcasting
	more than 130 HD channels nationwide.

Dual Antenna System

	Enjoy watching channels from DirecTV Ku-band satellites (101˚W, 110˚W, and 119˚W) and Ka-band
	satellites (99˚W and 103˚W) simultaneously just like a home system, using Intellian’s exclusive dual
	antenna system.

Wide Range Search (WRS) Algorithm

	Since the Ka-band signal has a very narrow beam width, the searching time may be extended if the
	antenna system is using the conventional searching method of searching for only the main lobe.
	Intellian’s patent-pending technology, WRS, can utilize the side lobes of the Ka-band signal and jump
	onto the main lobe directly which will shorten the searching time significantly.

Dynamic Beam Tilting (DBT) Technology

	An advanced tracking technology is required for tracking the very narrow beam-width of the Ka-
	band signal. The DBT patent-pending technology allows the k-Series to have the most reliable and
	accurate tracking capability while the vessel is cruising at high speed or in rough sea conditions.

New Rack-Mount Dual Antenna Control Unit (DACU)

	Controls two antennas at once and allows switching of channels freely amongst DirecTV’s 5 satellites
	using a TV remote control. Includes DACU’s built-in HD and MIM modules. Also, the DACU easily
	connects up to 8 receivers directly from different rooms without additional multi-switches and wiring
	to the DACU’s built-in 8 receiver connectors.

NMEA 0183 GPS Interface

A GPS Interface supports an external GPS which can provide the k-Series even higher performance
