Flexible migration

FleetBroadband takes your vessel into the IP era. But if you're not quite ready to move to IP, it still supports the core ISDN capability of our existing services.

Based on 3G standards, it provides constant, simultaneous access to voice and broadband data.

Operational systems can be running online and you can still access email, the internet and make phone calls - all via a single terminal.
