KVH and ViaSat Expand mini-VSAT Broadband Coverage to Persian Gulf

KVH and ViaSat's attempt to cover the globe with it's satellite coverage has just gotten larger. Now the mini-VSAT Broadband coverage is extended to the Persian Gulf.

"The addition of mini-VSAT Broadband coverage for the Persian Gulf enables us to provide more affordable broadband Internet for critical commercial and government maritime operations as well as leisure vessels in the region," explains Brent Bruun, KVH's vice president of sales and business development. "Ship operators are looking for cost effectiveness in an increasingly competitive market, and the TracPhone V7 and mini-VSAT Broadband service offer lower hardware, installation, and airtime costs than competing services in the Persian Gulf. In most cases, we can dramatically reduce a fleet's monthly airtime expenses."
