BGAN

Renowned ease of use for land expeditionary users

No bigger than a laptop, Inmarsat BGAN readily translates to any “grab and go” situation. BGAN is accessible via a range of small, lightweight satellite terminals, which provide performance options to suit a variety of operational needs. With BGAN, users set up immediately and can gain assured connectivity within minutes without dealing with complicated file and frequency settings. Because of its compact size, BGAN saves a great deal of much needed space in transport vehicles, which are typically heavily packed with food, medical supplies, weapons and other cargo. All of this creates more time to focus on the mission at hand.

BGAN is accessible via a range of small, lightweight satellite terminals, which provide performance options to suit different operational needs. The smallest terminals are designed to suit single users. The larger terminals offer a WLAN capability and are particularly suitable for small teams that need to establish a temporary office for an extended period. They are also suitable for users requiring higher bandwidth to enable applications such as live broadcasting.

Simultaneous voice and data
A single BGAN terminal provides simultaneous voice and narrowband data up to 492 kbps, enabling you to access the internet or send email, and talk on the phone at the same time.
Global coverage
BGAN is available across the globe, with the exception of the extreme polar regions, providing connectivity wherever your business or operations take you.
Reliable network
BGAN services are delivered via the Inmarsat ELERA network, with 99.9 percent availability and an operational lifespan expected into the 2030s.

BGAN meets military and government requirements for security and supports all major VPN products and encryption standards.
Totally flexible
Supporting the latest IP services, as well as traditional circuit-switched voice and data, BGAN integrates seamlessly with corporate networks and legacy applications.
Streaming IP and BGAN X-Stream™
BGAN supports a range of guaranteed on-demand Streaming IP rates from 32 kbps to at least 384 kbps, and up to 450 kbps with BGAN X-Stream™.
Easy to use
No technical expertise or training is needed to set up and use BGAN. All terminals are plug and play, so you can go online within minutes.
Vehicular BGAN
Antennas are compact, relatively lightweight and discreet, so as not to draw attention.
The vehicular antenna can be permanently or magnetically mounted to the roof of any suitable vehicle, be it a truck, bus or recreational vehicle (RV).
