Backpack to broadband

It's quick and easy to set up and use BGAN for voice calls, email, web-browsing and videoconferencing applications. This video illustrates a real-life set-up of a BGAN connection from the moment the terminal is taken out of a backpack.

FLEXIBLE AND SECURE

BGAN supports the latest IP services, as well as traditional circuit-switched voice and data. Integrating seamlessly with your corporate network, it supports legacy applications while providing a smooth upgrade path to IP. There are terminals for single users and small teams, which can be connected to a laptop via a wired or wireless connection. The user interface can also be customised according to your requirements.
