Marlink Launches Entry-Level VSAT Service
Marlink is launching @SEAdirect, a new, entry-level-band VSAT service. The low-cost service provides multiple data rates of up to 1024/256 kbps, offering Internet, e-mail, and voice capability for increased operational efficiency and crew communication at sea. The new service provides ship owners and operators with Internet and e-mail for business and crew, together with a 24/7 worldwide customer support service.
Marlink can also provide leased hardware as an option with installation and service available globally. Using the same antenna system as Marlink’s WaveCall VSAT solution, @SEAdirect can be easily upgraded to the WaveCall service, without any modifications to the hardware.
Marlink’s introduction of the new @SEAdirect service confirms the company’s commitment to offering the most comprehensive product portfolio on the market, with a solution to meet any customer requirement. “By close cooperation with our customers and other partners in the transportation market, we have developed a service offering which focuses on the market specific needs for business and crew. The @SEAdirect service provides Internet, e-mail and voice for business and crew use at a low fixed monthly rate,” comments Tore Morten Olsen, CEO, Marlink.
