PAS 2, 3, 3R, 4 → Intelsat 2, 3R, 4 (original) (raw)
PAS 2 [Boeing BSS]
In November 1991, PanAmSat Corporation ordered three Hughes HS-601 model PAS (PanAmSat) satellites from Hughes Space and Communications Company. The satellites provide video services for program distribution and syndication; data services for business applications; and services for video, radio, data and telephone transmission. They were placed over the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans, respectively. In August 1993, PanAmSat ordered a fourth satellite, to be used as a spare. The spare was pressed into service to replace the first PAS-3 spacecraft, which was lost during a launch vehicle failure.
The PAS spacecraft were the first in the Hughes HS-601line to use Hughes' patented advanced shaped reflector antennas. These lightweight reflectors have an intricately contoured surface that shapes the signal to the targeted land area, eliminating the need for a heavy feedhorn array.
Intelsat changed the name of the PAS satellites to Intelsat effective to 1. February 2007.
PAS 4 suffered a SCP failure. The satellite is operating normally due to a backup processor.
