WirEng® 5G Maritime Solutions

Since 2008, cargo ships and vessels around the world have been using WirEng®'s ultra-wide band antennas to catch the LTE service available from far away shores at a small fraction of their satellite internet cost!

5G LTE is a cellular network technology that provides high-speed internet and voice services to mobile devices, such as hotspots, modems, and routers. In the context of vessels, WirEng®'s 5G LTE solutions can provide internet connectivity to ships at sea, allowing them to communicate with shore-based systems and other vessels, access navigation and weather information, and provide internet access to passengers and crew. Some examples of 5G LTE solutions for vessels include:
 
  • WirEng® Cellular-based systems, which use an on-board router to connect to a 5G LTE network via a SIM card. This allows vessels to access the internet and make voice calls using a cellular network while at sea, up to 30 miles from the shore.
  • Satellite-based systems that use a VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) to connect to a satellite for internet and voice services. These systems can provide coverage in areas where cellular networks are not available.
  • Hybrid systems, which combine WirEng®'s cellular connectivity and a satellite system to provide a more reliable and robust internet connection. These systems can automatically switch between cellular and satellite connectivity depending on the availability and quality of each.
  • Fleet broadband systems which are high-speed satellite internet services designed specifically for maritime use. They provide data, voice, and IP fax services to ships at sea, regardless of their location, and allows multiple users to connect simultaneously and share the same connection.

When it comes to cost, nothing can beat WirEng®'s cellular based 5G marine solutions, which can be as much as 20 times more economic than the other systems mentioned above. This is especially true in the United States, where you can now obtain an unlimited 5G data plan for your router for just $30 per month.
