Which BGAN Terminal is Right for You?

• Broadband Internet Access up to 492 kbps
• Voice communications without interrupting ongoing internet sessions
• Superior quality video communications using 256 kbps streaming

Which BGAN Terminal is Right for You? If small size and compactness is your primary concern, we recommend the Nera WorldPro. It is perfect for people packing their own gear. A great option is its tiny BlueTooth coordless handset for voice communications. You can choose between USB and wireless BlueTooth for internet/data connections to your computer. Outfitter Satellite offers prepaid internet access with a convenient counter so you always know exactly how many MegaBytes of usage remain on your account and you can tightly control your own budget. Our standard plan also offers voice to any public switched telephone number for only $0.99 per minute, though calls to other satellite phones are at a higher rate.

For the highest performance, we recommend the HNS-9201. It supports the highest guaranteed streaming rate of 256 kbps and can reach up to 492 kbps when using best effort data or internet access. The HNS-9201 is definitely the best choice for video, VPN, and secure communications. A rugged external mounting system is available for more permanent applications. ISDN circuit-switched data is available for backwards compatibility with older Inmarsat M4 applications. If you need to guarantee the absolute highest streaming performance, Outfitter Satellite can arrange for leased lines (at an additional monthly charge) to support your streaming data right to your corporate location's doorstep.

BGAN is a Complete Mobile Office Communications Package: Inmarsat has launched its new Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) and is transforming personal satellite communications. BGAN terminals are incredibly small and light -- weighing as little as 2.2 lbs! Now you can carry the same internet and voice services you have come to expect when you are at home or at the office -- almost anywhere on earth. Three classes of BGAN terminals exist with different performance capabilities, including “best effort” data/internet access up to 492 kbps, guaranteed “streaming” data up to 256 kbps, toll quality voice, 64 kbps ISDN circuit-switched data, G-3 fax, and short messaging. Outfitter Satellite also offers free SkyFile software with an email account, PC-fax capability, and store-and-forward video software. Every terminal doesn't support every service, so please call Outfitter Satellite for more information.
