coverage BGAN will deliver seamless network coverage across most of the
worlds land mass. Users will be able to get broadband wherever they go
not just in major cities or at the airport. BGAN is initially accessible in Europe,
Africa, the Middle East and Asia. Coverage will be extended to North and South
America, expected by mid 2006. Simultaneous
voice and broadband data With a single BGAN device, you can access data
applications at speeds up to half a megabit and make a phone call at the same
time. In a world-first for mobile services, you can also select guaranteed data
rates on demand, with a choice of data rates to suit your application requirements.
And to ensure bandwidth availability, network capacity can be re-directed
to areas of heavy usage. Highly
portable BGAN terminals are compact, lightweight and can be carried as
easily as a laptop the smallest BGAN terminal weighs less than one kilo.
A fully functional broadband mobile office can be set up and shut down in minutes. Totally
flexible BGAN supports the latest IP services, as well as traditional
circuit-switched voice and data. Integrating seamlessly with your corporate networks,
it will support legacy applications while providing a smooth upgrade path to IP.
There are terminals for single users and small teams, which can be connected to
a laptop via a wired or wireless connection. And the user interface can be customised
according to your requirements. |
