satellite signals, and deliver 35% more satellite TV programming and over 21 times more HD programming than other single antenna, marine-grade products on the market.
"The Intellian d-Series is a revolutionary new solution designed to address issues boaters have had viewing HDTV programming," said Eric Sung, president and CEO of Intellian Technologies. "Prior to its introduction, boaters were limited to a dual antenna Intellian solution or a third-party, repurposed home satellite product that weighs over 200 pounds. Our elegant, rugged and marinized d4 and d6 antennas are the ideal choice for a leading satellite TV service subscribers looking to maximize their on-the-water viewing pleasure."
The d-Series features automatic satellite switching and a plug-and-play interface that allows connection to as many as six satellite receivers. FCC and CE approved, the d-Series, like all Intellian marine TV antenna solutions, meets the company’s extremely high environmental testing standards. With a simple, elegant design and compact size, the perfectly balanced d-Series platform also minimizes components and cabling, thus increasing reliability, and making installation and maintenance easier than other solutions on the market. The d4 has a 17.7-inch antenna dish, weighs 25.5 pounds and is housed in a 21.3-inch high dome with a 19.7-inch diameter. The d6 has a 23.6-inch dish, weighs 44 pounds and has a 28.3- by 27.5-inch dome. The Intellian d-Series antenna systems are designed to operate in +/- 25-degree rolls and +/- 15-degree pitches at 45-degrees per second. Operating as low as negative 5 to 130-degrees Fahrenheit, the Intellian d-Series HD antennas are IPx6 rated, shock and vibration proof, and protected by a 2-year parts and 1-year labor limited warranty.
