Introduction to FleetBroadband
The next generation in maritime communication services
FleetBroadband Services SnapshotNext generation maritime service from Inmarsat:
Broadband data
… plus voice
accessible simultaneously
through a single terminal
with guaranteed data rates on-demand
with ISDN data
that will be available globally
Messaging
What are the key benefits of FB?
• Higher throughput speeds• Simultaneous voice and IP data
functionality• Reliable• Flexible - multiple terminals
and service• Easy to manage• Supports crew welfare• Global coverage (upon
successful launch of I4-F3)• Conversion path from Fleet to
FB (manufacturers to provide exact details)
• Cost efficiency

Product
Fleet to FleetBroadband Conversion
• JRCJRC have confirmed a Fleet 33 to FB 250 as well as Fleet 77 to FB 500. This will entail Below Deck Unit replacement, but maintaining existing Above Deck Unit
• Thrane– Thrane has released this
statement:– “T&T are investigating
the possibility of a conversion path from Fleet to FB. However, no firm decisions have been made yet”
Mobile

new radio technology
BGAN Architecture
ISDN
Direct dial voice service
• Available on all new FB terminals
• Landline quality speech (4kbps)
• To and from – Terrestrial networks– Mobile networks– FB to FB
• Can be used simultaneously with data
• Supports Supplementary value-added services– Caller ID, Call Hold, Call Waiting– Call Forwarding, Call Barring
Crystal Clear Voice telephony
ISDN and 3.1Khz services
• FB System will support one circuit switched service at any one time
• One Single Channel ISDN Service supported on FB 500
• ISDN Supports legacy ISDN equipment
• FB 250 will support 3.1KHz audio only– Premium voice, data and fax
SMS and Voice Mail
• Short Messaging Services (Text)– To/from other BGAN terminals– To/from terrestrial cellular
networks (subject to commercial
agreements)
• Voice Mail Service– SMS notification
Two FleetBroadband IP Service Types
Standard IP Streaming IP
Standard IP
• Basic broadband data service charged for data sent and received
• Connections through to Internet or DP PoP and onwards
• Designed for TCP applications - typical office applications like email, web browsing, FTP, VPN
• Shared connection ‘pipe’; less traffic = higher throughput, more traffic = lower throughput; Contention.
• High demand triggers extra capacity allocation; dynamically assigned, real time
432kbps
Streaming IP
• Schedule of reserved capacity - 3GPP
• Fixed rates - 32, 64, 128, 256 Kbps
• Your own ‘pipe’; not shared; no contention
• Aimed at UDP applications - Video and Audio applications – Quicktime, WinMedia
• Robustly tested – Media & Gov

FleetBroadband Launch Pad
• BGAN LaunchPad™
• Same user interface across all terminals
• Consistent user experience globally
• Set up a broadband mobile office in minutes
FleetBroadband Launch Pad
• Simple and trusted - removes the ‘dark art’ of using a new service.
• Easy to sell, train and support - e.g. common error messages and same as BGAN
• Gives central control - over the way services are presented and deployed.
• Imposes documented, standard UT/TE interface - good for solutions developers
• Presents low cost e-Fax simply
• Presents SMS to multiple users - encourages easy access to Text messaging
• Unique platform for value added services
• Clear status display - users aware of services being used
• A way to deliver TCP PEP securely
Value For Money
Standard Rate Plan• No Subscription charges• Voice
– Less expensive then current Inmarsat voice services
– Priced competitively against Iridium
– 24 X 6 global voice pricing – Super Quiet Time will no longer be required
• ISDN– Priced similarly to current
• IP– Significant price reduction –
50% less expensive then MPDS– Additional discounts for higher
usage
Money Bundle Rate Plans• Package rate plan available for one
vessel/UT– Package includes voice and
standard IP– Flexible– Substantial value savings
Shared Fleet Bundle Rate Plan• Package rate available to a
number of vessels in one fleet– Package includes voice and
standard IP– Ability to control costs across a
fleet of vessels
FleetBroadband versus VSAT
Inmarsat• Operates in L-band• Not affected by weather – can
operate with 100% reliability• Global coverage• Bandwidth of up to 432 kbps• Low capital costs for antennas• Small antenna/lightweight• Only pay for WHEN and WHAT
you use • Easy to install and maintain
VSAT • Operates in Ku-band• Affected by weather – not
reliable during poor weather• ‘Patch-work’ coverage• Bandwidth of up to 2 m
downlink• Expensive capital costs for
antennas• Large antenna• Typically requires a long term
contract commitment• More time consuming
installation - licensing and equipment
Benefits of FleetBroadband
Market Requirements FleetBroadband Service
Flexible pricing models
Global network availability
Enabling use of onboard standard applications
Unrivalled global support & service
More bandwidth – more options
FleetBroadband Availability
• FleetBroadband will be available over the two I-4 satellites on November 19th
• FleetBroadband will be available with complete global coverage after the successful launch of the third I4
