Fixed-price FleetBroadband bundles from Marlink
(Feb  8  2010)

Marlink has introduced a range of new fixed-price 'FleetBroadband Bundles' which can be purchased with two and three year price plans.

The new bundles will enable customers to lease equipment from a choice of three different vendors, as well as purchase broadband time for data and voice, all at a fixed monthly cost.

Marlink says that customers of the new bundles will benefit from low equipment and airtime prices.

"The launch of our new FleetBroadband Bundles is part of our ongoing commitment to provide exceptional flexibility and value to maritime satellite communications customers worldwide," said Tore Morten Olsen, CEO, Marlink.

"FleetBroadband provides customers with high quality connectivity at sea and costs that are dependent upon usage. However, some ship operators prefer fixed charges to ensure predictability."

"Our new FleetBroadband bundles have been designed to help customers regulate communications costs, as they will be able to purchase an amount of airtime and data at a fixed cost. In addition, the FleetBroadband equipment is included in the monthly bundle price, which means that customers won't have to make heavy investments in hardware."
