Commercial Marine

Commercial vessels increasingly need sophisticated satcoms systems to operate efficiently, enhance overall business operations and ensure crew satisfaction and retention. Livewire Connections can provide you with the full spectrum of maritime satcom systems (Inmarsat, Iridium, Thuraya, VSAT) as well as a large range of customised solutions to ensure the system meets your requirements.

We can provide the vessel and her crew a complete solution including hardware, airtime, email services, 1st and 2nd line support services, VoIP, IT networking, prepaid crew welfare solutions, tracking and anti-piracy services. We customise the type of connection to suit the operating region, bandwidth requirements and costs restrictions to provide a reliable and effective solution.

Livewire Connections is a main SeaTel dealer providing VSAT and TVRO hardware worldwide and, using a team of in-house SeaTel trained engineers, can provide installation and support services. We hold a large number of SeaTel spares in stock for both TVRO and VSAT to ensure your system is operational to suit your schedule.

The Access Controller FB-10, designed and manufactured by Livewire Connections solely for the maritime sector, provides a comprehensive range of features to ensure your vessel’s network is running efficiently. Simple switching between different Internet connections (eg VSAT, Inmarsat, 3G, WiFi etc) as well as dynamic fire-walling to ensure you are reducing the background connection using the bandwidth and securing the network. Spend control allows you to monitor and limit your spending on connections that charge per min or per Mb (eg Inmarsat Fleetbroadband) to ensure that you do not have any unexpected airtime bills. The Access Controller FB-10 also includes Bandwidth Monitoring and QoS to allow the essential ships business to use all the available bandwidth while restrict non-essential use.
