Case Study: Fishing Trawler Vessel Overcomes Connectivity Challenges with Starlink Solution
With Network Innovations Maritime as your trusted advisor, rest assured that your vessel will be equipped with a solution most tailored to your...
the Challenge
In February 2022, Network Innovations U.S. Government was contacted by a customer that required LEO and GEO satcom services for the timely transfer of intelligence to mission-critical clients from the sea. Applications could involve the identification of threats or the enhancement of wartime situational awareness.
Data transfer poses challenges for every industry, but when it comes to remote file transfer from a ship to shore, there are additional obstacles to overcome. These include signal interference, harsh weather conditions, and the movements of the vessel itself. For defense services, the transfer of critical information is an absolute necessity and typically entails a complex solution to achieve success.
The Solution
MAVERICK VSAT struck the right chord with a solution consisting of:
- Robust maritime antennas with flexible and resilient modem solutions
- Powerful satellite connectivity with guaranteed throughput reliability for the transmission of critical data
In the months that followed the first inquiry, solution testing and installation took place. MAVERICK’s dynamic carrier technology made it possible for the client to work offshore, extending their corporate network to remote locations. For the crews operating in the oceans, an interconnect from their CONUS based Point of Presence (PoP) was established – facilitating the exchange of key intelligence and remote access to the systems deployed at sea.
