Marlink informed that it has added SpaceX’s Starlink service to its offerings. Starlink is a high-speed, low-latency broadband internet service enabled by a constellation of satellites in Low Earth Orbit.
Marlink and OmniAccess will leverage Starlink to complement their portfolio of smart network solutions and services globally. Under the agreement, Marlink and OmniAccess will act as global “authorized Starlink integrators” for maritime and enterprise customers.
Marlink’s integration of Starlink with existing VSAT, LTE (4G/5G) and terrestrial connectivity solutions aim to lead to a seamless user experience. Marlink and OmniAccess will orchestrate the different connectivity paths to provide communications network solutions to improve customers’ business-critical applications, passenger communications, and crew and remote workers’ welfare.
This ability to utilise Starlink is giant step in our strategy to provide our customers with the best-in-class user experience, combining our industry-leading GEO satellite connectivity solutions with the next generation LEO high-speed, low-latency services
said Erik Ceuppens, CEO, Marlink Group.
What is more, SpaceX Vice President of Starlink Sales Jonathan Hofeller, added that “adding Starlink to its offerings will bring a new dimension of connectivity to Marlink’s global customer base.”
This low-latency, high-bandwidth broadband experience will allow enterprise and maritime customers to manage their remote businesses more efficiently than ever before
