R B-GAN Inmarsat Regional BGAN

Inmarsat's satellite technology provides a fast, efficient connection, allowing you to download files, e-mail or attachments in about 10 seconds.

Advanced spot-beam technology allows Inmarsat I4 satellites to maintain a footprint stretching from Western Europe Africa to Japan and Australia, across central and Eastern Europe, the southern CIS countries, to the Middle East and the Indian sub-continent.

The maximum bandwidth within each spot-beam is 144kbit/s. But because Regional BGAN is a packet data network, the average bandwidth available is shared among several connected users if they transmit data at the same time. Average bandwidth available is set at around 115K.

The Regional BGAN system allocates this capacity where needed - invisibly to the end-user. Based on Inmarsat's forecast of traffic and capacity, over a three-minute period we estimate users will consistently experience transfer rates equivalent to more than quadruple those offered by current terrestrial services.
