Cobham Satcom Selects CPI as RF Supplier for Telesat Lightspeed Landing Station Terminals

News-Cobham Satcom and partners win two Railway Technology Excellence Awards

Cobham Satcom, alongside partners Inmarsat and Globalsat Group have won two Railway Technology Excellence Awards. The accolades reward our excellence in the Product Launch and Operations categories for our Rail Telemetry and Communications Solution.

Offering real-time data transfer and push-to-talk (PTT) communications for rail operators working in remote areas, the solution connects drivers and railway staff wherever they are, helping drive operational efficiencies and boosting overall railway safety.

The award-winning connectivity solution was implemented by Globalsat Group, who also ensures its optimal operation. The solution incorporates terminals from Cobham Satcom which use Inmarsat’s ELERA L-band network to access uninterrupted, high-quality connectivity facilitating the transfer of telematics, voice and video data. This allows accurate real-time tracking of each train and communication between drivers, maintenance staff and regional control centres. The locomotive data is visualized in an application which depicts the entire railway network and the position and speed of each vehicle.

Steven Tompkins, Director of Market Development at Inmarsat Enterprise, said: We’re thrilled our solution, which provides real-time data access and voice communications between driver and operations control centre, as well as real-time tracking, has been recognised in two separate categories of the Railway Technology Excellence Awards. The beauty of this solution is that satellite connectivity eliminates the need to install a fibre network, saving customers substantial infrastructure investment.  It also enables rail operators to safely add more locomotives to their rail network, because they know exactly where each one is and how fast it’s travelling.”

**Igor Falcão, Senior Vice President of Sales** at Globalsat Group, commenting on the award-winning collaboration, said: “This award is a great validation of our efforts to be at the forefront of the latest innovations in the rail industry. In bringing together Cobham Satcom’s high-performance terminals and Inmarsat’s industry-leading satellite network designed for IoT, our clients to gain access to the latest and best available technology for real-time data collection and analysis.”

**Henrik Nørrelykke, Vice President Critical Communications**, Cobham Satcom, commented: “We’re very proud to be leading the way in rail telemetry solutions as part of a very successful collaboration with Inmarsat and Globalsat Group. These awards acknowledge how real-time data transfer and push-to-talk (PTT) communications are helping the rail industry address its key safety and efficiency challenges thanks to managed IoT services connected over Inmarsat’s reliable and secure ELERA network.”

Under the terms of the agreement, Cobham Satcom will manufacture, integrate, and install advanced Ka-band tracking antennas at Telesat’s sites throughout the world, and provide long-term logistics and maintenance support. The radome-protected antennas will provide accurate tracking in the most adverse weather conditions, ensuring high availability and throughput for carrier-grade performance. Based on Cobham Satcom’s successful TRACKER Gateway series, the Landing Station terminals offer industry-leading performance, high reliability, and low total cost of ownership.


“Cobham Satcom’s innovative antenna technology delivers robust, resilient and highly-efficient performance with compelling economics,” said Aneesh Dalvi, Telesat’s Director of LEO Landing Stations and User Terminals. “The low power consumption of the TRACKER antennas provides significant financial benefits, and is well-aligned with Telesat Lightspeed objectives to provide best-in-class enterprise-grade connectivity while reducing the carbon footprint of our system and maintaining a green and sustainable planet.”


“I am extremely proud that we have been selected by Telesat for this critical element of Telesat Lightspeed”, said Leif Ottosson, CEO at Cobham Satcom. “It underscores the strong relationship forged between Telesat and Cobham Satcom over many years. In combining our extensive heritage in tracking technologies and experience developing antenna systems for multiple non-geostationary satellite systems, we are excited by the opportunity to install our TRACKER terminals across the global Landing Station network, and to help enable Telesat’s next-generation services for commercial, defence and government customers worldwide.”


Telesat’s telecom, enterprise, maritime and aviation customer terminals will connect to the Telesat Lightspeed satellites that carry the user traffic through the mesh space network to Landing Stations deployed globally. Each Telesat Lightspeed Landing Station will host multiple TRACKER antennas, along with the baseband, network and control systems. The Landing Stations will connect user traffic to Points-of-Presences for telecom networks, internet and cloud services, and will support private interconnection for customer networks.


Cobham Satcom will integrate the TRACKER antennas with baseband modems from SatixFy, to enable the Telesat Lightspeed network to provide 15 Tbps of global network capacity. Up to four TRACKER antennas may be simultaneously pointed at each Telesat Lightspeed satellite, allowing efficient use of satellite capacity and very high customer throughput in both forward and return directions.
