How Does Near-shore Wi-Fi Work?


  • Near-shore Wi-Fi is powered by a terrestrial wireless link, facilitating non-satellite internet connection for vessels close to land. This radio-based broadband service uses carrier-grade technology adapted for moving ships to deliver fiber-like speeds and low latency.

    Our multi-layer connectivity solutions for those at sea enable seamless switching from satellite internet to Wi-Fi when your vessels are in port and harbor or operating just offshore. This allows you to harness the benefits of faster, high-capacity connections without signal interruption.
