How Does Maritime VSAT Work?

  • GEO VSAT is a fully managed Ku/Ka/C-band geostationary satellite service that delivers steady, business-grade connectivity for maritime vessels and infrastructure. Primarily, it provides connectivity for cargo ships, offshore assets, remote sites, and branch locations.

  • At MTN, we provide end-to-end delivery through our teleports and backbone, with 24/7 Network Operations Center (NOC) support and options for direct cloud or private MPLS interconnects. GEO VSAT can run standalone or as a protected path within a multi-WAN design alongside LEO and terrestrial links.
