One of the industry’s largest and most technologically advanced fleets benefits from Marlink’s flexible advanced media solution for viewing daily-updated crew content on board. XChange Media will connect crews on board UASC vessels to a world of news, sports and TV.
Deployment of XChange Media across the UASC fleet was carried out remotely and completed in less than a week onboard company’s 44 vessels to provide on-demand multi-lingual content for crew via their personal devices.
The company claims that with this order, UASC will increase crew satisfaction in a cost-efficient way through the provision of daily updated content on XChange Media. The solution comes with cost-efficient program packages, as content can be shared with all crew members at no extra cost to them. Crew can simply use their own smartphones, tablets, and laptops via Wi-Fi either in their cabins or with friends and colleagues in communal areas on television whenever their shifts allow.
“XChange Media boosts the already high-end crew welfare facilities possible via our Sealink VSAT service,” said Tore Morten Olsen, President Maritime, Marlink.
“We are extremely pleased XChange Media has been selected by UASC to deliver content to their crew. By delivering high quality, multi-lingual news, sport and also TV, UASC can provide a more relaxing environment for their hardworking crew members, in turn, increasing job satisfaction and employee retention.”
