GSM ENABLED VESSELS

BLUE OCEAN WIRELESS - GSM ENABLED VESSELS Blue Ocean Wireless is an Irish based company focused on expanding mobile communication capability to the maritime market. Blue Ocean Wireless provides, for the first time, mobile GSM connectivity for seafarers at sea, where no other network exists. This allows users to make and receive voice calls, send and receive SMS text messages and, in time, GPRS like services such as email and the internet. Blue Ocean Wireless’ service will, for the first time, enable seafarers to use their existing mobile phones while at sea in exactly the same way that they would do in port or on land.  To provide mobile communication to the global maritime market, enable seafarers and businesses to be connected to the mobile world while at sea.

 

The barriers of entry that prohibited standard GSM mobile communications service over Inmarsat within the maritime world have finally been bridged.

Blue Ocean Wireless' exclusive license of the Altobridge patented technology allows seafarers to make and receive mobile phone calls and send and receive SMS messages while at sea. It works the same way as land based mobile phones do.
