Marlink is going to purchase the WaveCall brand from Sea Tel and will package its maritime VSAT solution and full-service support network with the latter's Sea Tel 4006 Ku-band antenna system.

The 4006 Ku-band antenna provides reliable satellite communications specifically within the maritime environment. The antenna is comprised of Above Deck and Below Deck equipment that's designed to withstand extreme marine conditions and maintain a stable connection — ideal for vessels that require "always-on" satcom. WaveCall by Marlink is a fast, cost-efficient VSAT solution providing professional-class e-mail, Internet, voice and IP packages for the leisure yachting sector. Features and value-added services include high-speed connectivity, simultaneous voice and data services, prepaid calling cards, and flexible billing.
