• Groundbreaking spread spectrum satellite communications technology offers seamless roaming throughout the worldwide network, and is ideal for heavy data use
• 85% smaller and 75% lighter than standard VSAT antennas so it’s easier to install and less expensive to operate
• Data rates as fast as 512 Kbps for ship-to-shore transmissions and as fast as 2 Mbps for shore-to-ship downloads as well as crystal-clear voice service
• ViaSat spread spectrum modem and KVH Antenna Control Unit (ACU) to support seamless regional roaming and high data use
• Chosen by the U.S. Coast Guard for maritime satellite communications
• Free access to KVH’s Velocity™ Acceleration software to optimize and speed up data connections via the mini-VSAT Broadband service
• Dynamic, gyro-stabilized tracking and military-grade modem for outstanding performance along with onboard networking via an integrated WiFi and Ethernet hub
• Choice of always-on, fixed price, or per-megabyte subscription plans, and easy, 1-call activation
• No need to hook up the antenna to the ship’s gyro compass – installation has never been simpler!
• World-class warranty coverage and support

• Crew Calling Gateway
  KVH’s Crew Calling Gateway will help your crew stay in touch with their loved ones by adding a dedicated voice line with flexible management options to fit your needs.
• Picocell
  Optional picocell solution from KVH and On-Waves brings maritime GSM cell phone service to TracPhone V7 users - with this solution, any crew member, passenger, or contractor can purchase a dedicated SIM card, pop it into their cell phone, and use that phone on a moving ship anywhere within the mini-VSAT Broadband coverage area. In addition to offering convenient, easy to use service, the On-Waves equipment is unobtrusive and easy to install. It includes a picocell and compact belowdecks hardware used to transmit calls over the mini-VSAT Broadband network.
• UCH-250 Fax Server ¹
  The UCH-250 Fax Server works with your TracPhone V7 system to deliver extremely reliable faxing over the mini-VSAT Broadband service. Once connected to any G3-compatible fax machine and the TracPhone V7, the UCH-250 helps to transmit each fax in a digital (rather than analog) format, avoiding the industry-wide problem of dropped or incomplete faxes commonly associated with faxing over Voice over IP (VoIP) connections.
• Access Controller FB-10
  For customers with Inmarsat systems installed in addition to TracPhone V7, the Access Controller FB-10 easily switches from mini-VSAT Broadband to Inmarsat service and back, so you can enjoy the benefits of both communication solutions! The supplied user application, which can be installed on any networked computer(s), also displays connection status and usage data.  

¹ In order to use the UCH-250 hardware, it is necessary to activate the supplemental mini-VSAT Broadband fax service (additional $45/month). To activate, call +1 866 399-8509 (Continental U.S.) or +1 401 847-3327 (North/South America, Australia) or +45 45 160 180 (Africa, Asia, Europe, Middle East).

• End-to-end System Integration
  The mini-VSAT Broadband service, along with the KVH TracPhone V7 antenna, comprise the first end-to-end 24-inch VSAT antenna, service, and support package available for global maritime communications. Together, KVH and ViaSat are currently providing two-way mobile broadcast services from eight secure teleports around the globe utilizing eight beams on seven of the world's most powerful communications satellites. The resulting seamless network offers voice service and Internet access as fast as 512 Kbps (upload) and 2 Mbps (download) at fixed monthly rates.
• ArcLight®  Technology
  KVH’s mini-VSAT Broadband network takes a revolutionary approach to maritime satellite communications to maximize data and voice throughput while preventing interference to adjacent satellites. The network is based on ViaSat’s ArcLight Code Reuse Multiple Access (CRMA) spread spectrum technology, which significantly reduces contention issues, transmission delays, and shared transmission bandwidth compared to traditional Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) technology relied upon by other VSAT networks.
• See KVH's Get The Scoop: CRMA Technology vs. Traditional TDMA Services.

 mini-VSAT Broadband Satellite Coverage Map

"When travelling through international waters - thereby crossing different mini-VSAT coverage areas - the automatic regional roaming with integrated GPS and automatic skew control saves the costly and time-consuming visit by a technician."
