ROCK Networks Partners with Intellian to Deliver State-of-the-art Satellite Antennas in Canada


OTTAWA, July 13, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ROCK Networks, a leading provider of wireless and broadband solutions, has partnered with Intellian, a leading global manufacturer of satellite antenna systems. The partnership will enable remote areas to connect to satellites via Intellian antennas across Canada, both on land and at sea.

Next-generation Intellian antennas can connect to Geostationary (GEO), Medium-Earth Orbit (MEO), and Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites across numerous bands. Intellian’s antennas use next-generation technology to provide high bandwidth, low latency connectivity to satellite service providers.

“This partnership further strengthens ROCK Networks’ position as a leader in future-proof communication technologies,” said Joe Hickey, President and CEO of ROCK Networks. “We are thrilled to begin selling Intellian’s state-of-the-art satellite antennas to the Canadian market.”

“ROCK Networks has a proven track record of delivering innovative communications solutions,” said Sam McKee, GM and VP Sales of Intellian Technologies USA, Inc. “We are excited to be working with an end-to-end distributor to sell our cost-effective, lightweight satellite antennas that can connect even the most remote locations to the world.”

This new partnership enables ROCK Networks to provide a comprehensive satellite communication solution as it complements the satellite service provider partnerships that ROCK has in the GEO, LEO, and MEO space. Intellian is a supplier of OneWeb user terminals that ROCK Networks will be demonstrating at its Ottawa office being this August. ROCK will sell antennas to both government and enterprise with a particular focus on maritime and Non-Geostationary (NGSO) satellite applications.
