KVH Link brings hundreds of channels and on-demand content to vessels worldwide, backed by the licensing agreements that protect you.
Let’s face it: long voyages, limited downtime, and months away mean life at sea isn’t easy, and it’s critical to give the crew the ability not only to connect with home and the news but also to have downtime and entertainment. Crew welfare should not be a perk. It should be a necessity. KVH built Link to deliver exactly that: a rich, reliable content experience designed specifically for maritime life and for fleets that believe in the morale and well-being of their crew.
There’s something else built into KVH Link that doesn’t always make the brochure or seem as important as a top movie listing: every piece of content is properly licensed.
Why it matters
Not all entertainment solutions are the same. KVH understands that failing to use properly licensed content can result in significant legal exposure, just as failing to protect against cyberattacks can create operational risks.
“When you choose a content partner, you’re choosing how much legal risk you inherit. We made sure that the risk with KVH Link is zero,” says Jamie Airs, KVH Manager, Global Content Sales.
What this means for you
Three things KVH Link handles so you don’t have to:
Proper licensing: Every channel and title in KVH Link is cleared for maritime broadcast distribution.
Your protection: Operating with unlicensed content exposes your company to potential legal penalties, fines, or detention. KVH Link fully eliminates these risks by ensuring everything is licensed.
Updated content: Content libraries are refreshed regularly to keep crews engaged without compliance headaches.
What’s on board with KVH Link
With more than 70 years of experience delivering news and entertainment, KVH provides vessels with best‑in‑class content that is easy to deploy, affordable to manage, and secure by design. KVH Link offers multilingual content from around the world, including daily news stories and clips, early‑release movies and classics from Hollywood to Bollywood, top TV series, music, radio, karaoke, live TV, and trending social video.
The bottom line
KVH is your partner who takes the responsibility seriously.
When your crew asks why certain content isn’t available through your service provider, the honest answer is: because doing it right matters. Securing broadcast rights, maintaining compliance across jurisdictions, ensuring cybersecure delivery, and updating libraries require infrastructure and investment.
That’s what KVH has built. And it’s what stands between your operation and the liability that comes with shortcuts.
