Global Satellite USA's Single Digital Comms Solution


Global Satellite IP PBX diagram Global Satellite USA has launched the first digital voice and data solution customized for a commercial boat or offshore application. For the first time, one can have a digital system that integrates with a satellite phone, a BGAN or Fleetbroadband system, SatCollect, internet, wireless and GSM in a single solution. 

This unified communication system brings several unique advantages.  First, Global Satellite USA deploys a category 5 cable that provides voice, data and power which substantially reduces the amount of cable and weight on the boat.  This has a huge impact on new found space as well as cable management, making such now much easier to control.  Second, should the system default in anyway, remote diagnostic is possible and a replacement part or identifying the source of the problem is easy identifiable via the Internet. The Global Satellite USA IP PBX has based its system using the CISCO Router, 1800 Series. This new platform delivers unified communications solutions to small and medium-sized businesses and small branch offices, enabling anytime, anywhere secure access to information. Through integration of voice gateway, call processing, voicemail, automated attendant, conferencing, transcoding, and security capabilities, this Integrated Services Router delivers a complete unified communications solution.  Global Satellite USA has used their engineering skills to use Cisco’s technology and integrated it with satellite so that it can be deployed on boats.
