Inmarsat Training Session – Controlling and Optimising Data sent over FleetBroadband
Howard Hughes, Technical Trainer, Inmarsat Training Academy

Communication is imperative especially in a busy working environment. It is essential in sending and receiving vital information that relates to the efficient operation of your vessel. Everything needs to run smoothly. But what happens when that communication is interrupted? Could it have been avoided? How much can you get from your FleetBroadband terminal? How can you optimise your connection? Is having an unlimited connection an answer to all problems?

 

Howard Hughes from the Inmarsat Training Academy is presenting a session about how to control and optimize the data which is sent and received over FleetBroadband. This session is designed to give awareness on how to protect your investment. This may suit those who are working in IT or have an interest in IP management / security.
