The company, a technology concern in the defense, national security and global markets, today announced that Orbit Communication Systems Ltd. has received multi-million-dollar orders from multiple international customers for its GAIA 100 Tri-Band 5.5-meter and 6.1-meter antenna systems.

The orders, which support Earth Observation (EO), New Space and satellite communications applications, reflect continued demand for Orbit's high-performance ground station solutions.

Alongside the announcement, Orbit is revealing the GAIA 100 Tri-Band 6.1, designed to deliver higher gain, improved link margins and enhanced Ka-band tracking performance. Supporting Earth Observation, New Space, defense and satellite communications applications, it combines advanced multi-band capability with a cost-effective, maintenance-free architecture.
