FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES

Twice the speed of GPRS: The connectivity offered by R-BGAN (up to 144 Kbps) runs at more than twice the speed of current terrestrial GPRS mobile phone networks.

Avoids the need for a fixed line network: R-BGAN provides fast and reliable access to the Internet and corporate computer networks, even where the local telecom infrastructure is poor, non-existent or expensive.

Easy to set up: The service is based around a lightweight satellite IP modem the size of a notebook PC. Weighing only 1.6 kg, the modem is fully portable and easy to use when and where you need it. The modem can be used with a single PC or connected to a local area network (LAN) through which it can be accessed by multiple devices.

Cost-effective packet data system: Connection to the Internet or a private network can be kept 'always on', and you only pay for the amount of data you send or receive, rather than the time spent online - making it an extremely effective business tool.

Convenient Connection Methods: The R-BGAN IP modem can be connected using USB, Ethernet or Bluetooth technology.
