A mobile router and a maritime long-range mobile antenna system (http://www.sputnik24.de) provide LTE network connection in port and close-shore regions.
The maximum throughput is 150 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload while highly dependent on ship's position, course and weather conditions. 20-40 Mbps are realistic values.
 
In case of low connection quality the connection is automatically handed over to 3G (UMTS) or even 2G (GPRS).

Approx. speed: 

  • 100 Mbps downstream
  • 50 Mbps upstream

The transmission service is enabled via the geostationary satellite Telstar 12 in KU-band. Its orbit position is 15° west. It operates within the European coverage zone (see figure).
Two antennas are installed to guarantee all time connection with no shadowing by ship's mast. Only one of both antennas is activly transmitting at a time.
The maximum throughput is 3 Mbps download and 1.5 Mbps upload while is highly dependent on satellite's elevation (perfect > 10°), ship's position and weather conditions.

Approx. speed: 

  • 3 Mbps downstream guaranteed (maximum 10 Mbps)
  • 1 Mbps upstream guaranteed (maximum 2 Mbps )
