The Broadband Global Area Network service - BGAN - offers global voice and high-speed data connectivity to our land-based customers, through terminals which are about the size of a laptop. Inmarsat BGAN Services is accessible via small, lightweight satellite terminals, providing performance options to suit different operational needs. Standard terminals are highly portable and can be used both indoors and outdoors. Vehicular systems comprise an interior terminal and a discreet tracking antenna, which is mounted on the vehicle roof. With a Inmarsat BGAN service, you can set up a broadband mobile office in minutes from anywhere in the world. You benefit from simultaneous voice and high speed data in areas with limited access to fixed-line or GSM networks. The Inmarsat BGAN service is now available around the globe, delivered through our global network of three I-4 satellites.The map above depicts the three I-4 satellite coverage regions. Any BGAN terminal will operate in any country within the coverage areas, and they may connect to any of the three BGAN satellites without re-configuring software, or changing service plans (ideal for world travelers). Inmarsat BGAN Services offers significantly expanded bandwidth and capabilities, as compared to current-generation mobile satellite services. Among the unique benefits that BGAN benefits are: Higher Speed Data: Leveraging the increased power of Inmarsat’s new I-4 satellites, BGAN offers high-speed data connections at speeds up to 492 kbps, significantly faster than any other current generation mobile satellite service. Streaming Data: This new QoS IP data option, available on all BGAN terminals, provides a guaranteed data throughput up to 256 kbps. This is a significant benefit for customers who need guaranteed, uninterrupted throughput, without contended service degradation. Simultaneous Voice Service: BGAN offers a low-speed 4.8 kbps voice service, providing a toll-quality connection and bringing customers the added benefit of voice in the field. In addition, both voice and data services can operate simultaneously on a single BGAN terminal, making the system flexible to a degree that is unprecedented in mobile satellite communications. BGAN Launch Pad: The new BGAN Launch Pad is a revolution in satellite software usability, providing a standard user interface across all BGAN terminals. The Launch Pad enables users to control their connection type, access utilities, and provides quick setup instructions for the terminal, including step-by-step pointing information.
