WaveCall™ is ideal for regional,multi-regional and global vessels that require always-on broadband satellite communications. In addition, the service is suitable for private corporate networks with requirements for a variety of applications, including file and image transfer, video conferencing, email, Virtual Private Networks, and database backup. How WaveCall™ works: WaveCall™ provides a broadband connection via satellite from the vessel to the public Internet and PSTN. The system performs in the same way as any standard terrestrial voice and data network. An Ethernet port on the Below Deck Equipment allows users to connect to a shipboard Local Area Network (LAN) or to stand-alone PCs on board. In addition two RJ-11 analog FXS telephone ports can be easily connected to a shipboard PBX or directly to on-board telephones. By interconnecting the Below Deck Equipment to the shipboard gyro compass, satellite acquisition is facilitated with minimal user intervention.
