VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) systems provide high-speed broadband satellite internet connectivity for maritime vessels worldwide. EKS Marine Electronics offers VSAT system sales, installation, commissioning, and ongoing technical support.
VSAT has transformed maritime communications by providing ships with reliable, high-bandwidth internet connectivity anywhere in the world. Modern maritime VSAT systems use stabilized antenna systems to maintain continuous satellite lock even in rough sea conditions.
Maritime VSAT operates in Ku-band, Ka-band, and C-band frequency ranges. Ku-band remains the most widely deployed due to global coverage and competitive pricing. Ka-band offers higher speeds in areas with coverage. C-band provides the most robust performance in heavy rain regions.
Applications include crew welfare internet, vessel operations and monitoring, remote maintenance and diagnostics, port paperwork and regulatory submissions, weather routing services, and cargo tracking systems.
EKS Marine Electronics is authorized distributor and service provider for Intellian, Sailor (Cobham), and other leading VSAT brands.
