Robust and affordable maritime communications: the real value of Thuraya via its Orion IP Maritime Broadband Terminal.

Progressively, it is obvious that, the maritime satellite market is changing but, Connectikpeople.co also observes that, the L-band can continue to play an important role in maritime communications for many years to come. In this case, operators like Thuraya, have to be able to understand what maritime users want from their communications solutions: choice, performance and value.

Henceforth at Thuraya Telecommunications, a leading Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) operator, they talk about Thuraya Orion IP, its first dedicated maritime broadband

terminal.

Thuraya Orion IP is a maritime-specific broadband terminal manufactured by Hughes Network Systems, LLC (Hughes), a global leader in broadband satellite solutions.

The new solution brings up to 444kbps, and leverages the Company’s highly reliable and uncongested network.

Connectikpeople.co observes that, the terminal has been designed for users who want simplicity in installation, flexible operations, and a platform that enables vessel operators to use their own value-added services as well as those from Thuraya.

Finally, Connectikpeople.co recalls that the Thuraya satellite network provides high quality L-band coverage spanning Northern Europe, Africa, the Middle East, North and South Asia and Australia. Current estimates suggest that at least 30,000 merchant maritime vessels operate under its footprint.
