Inmarsat FleetBroadband
FleetBroadband is the first maritime communications service to provide cost-effective broadband data and voice, simultaneously, through a compact antenna on a global basis. FleetBroadband takes your vessel into the IP era, but still supports the core voice and ISDN data capability of our existing maritime services. This allows you to ease your transition to IP – as and when you are ready.
Applications: FleetBroadband supports an extensive range of commercially available, off-the-shelf software, as well as specialized user applications. It is ideal for:
Global CoverageFleetBroadband ensures you are never out of touch, wherever you sail. The service is accessible globally except for the extreme polar regions. Superior Performance FleetBroadband gives you faster, more cost-effective access to data services. Besides constant, real-time weather and ECDIS updates, you can use more complex applications with confidence. Its simultaneous voice and data capability means that operational systems can be running online and you can still access email, your intranet and make voice calls – all via a single terminal. Unrivalled reliability You can depend on Inmarsat, whatever the weather. Inmarsat provides an average network availability exceeding 99.99 per cent. FleetBroadband terminals are designed specifically for use within the marine environment and will be rigorously tested to our exacting standards. The whole system will be supported by our worldwide network of partners.
TerminalsThree types of terminal (FB150, FB250 and FB500) with different performance capabilities will be available from multiple manufacturers. Both use stabilized, directional antennas, varying in size and weight, but are smaller or comparable with existing Fleet terminals. The whole system is designed specifically for the marine environment. |
