The most compact high-powered Fleet satellite communications system
available!
TracPhone F55 makes the power and versatility of Inmarsat’s Fleet
satellite service available in a compact, mobile communications system ideal
for leisure craft and small commercial vessels worldwide. Using a 22" (55
cm) antenna housed in a 26" (66 cm) dome matching KVH’s TracVision M7,
TracPhone F55 delivers fast Internet/Intranet connections, video conferencing,
and global voice/fax service.
TracPhone F55 provides access to both Fleet’s Integrated Services Digital
Network (ISDN) channel and Mobile Packet Data Service (MPDS) via Inmarsat’s
global spotbeams, which cover 90% of the world’s cruising routes as well as
all popular maritime regions. These services give you two powerful options
for high-speed Internet access: ISDN (per-minute charge) for high-bandwidth
voice, video conferencing, and large file transmission; and MPDS (per-megabit
charge) for a high-capacity, always-online connection which allows you to surf
the web without the constraints of a pay-by-the-minute type of connection –
a far more relaxing way to use the Internet! TracPhone F55 is fully compatible
with shipboard PABX systems as well as onboard networks (when connected to
an IP router).
Founded in 1979 and supporting more than 260,000 users worldwide, Inmarsat
is the world leader in mobile satellite communications. Fleet F55 and TracPhone
F55 are compatible with Inmarsat’s 4th generation of satellites ensuring that
your investment in communications today will continue to pay dividends in the
future.
