After testing was completed on the April 26th, NSSL and TS became the first service providers to have commercial services available in the Atlantic Ocean that was specifically aimed at the yachting and commercial maritime market. The extension of the coverage zone is yet another example of NSSL’s ongoing investment in its DVB-S2 network and its successful ongoing partnership with Telemar Scandinavia. In September of 2008, NSSL and Telemar announced a joint partnership for their Maritime Broadband Services, with NSSL’s Cruise IP and Telemar’s Seacall services now both using the same high-quality DVB-S2-RCS broadband platform.
