BGAN is a combined voice and broadband data mobile communications service, available anywhere on the planet and delivered via a highly portable, easy-to-use device.
Based on IP technology, BGAN makes it possible for users to connect their notebook PC or Mac to the Internet or their corporate network at speeds up to half a megabit per second. They can remotely access all the applications they would normally access from their desktop via a secure Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection. They can even make a telephone call at the same time.
The BGAN service will offer seamless and continuous coverage across about 85 per cent of the world's landmass, even in areas where terrestrial telecoms networks are unreliable or non-existent.
The service is accessed via small, lightweight satellite terminals - about the size of a notebook PC - which are easy to carry, quick to set up and shut down, and simple to use.
