Globe Wireless, a provider of communications, operational and IT solutions to the maritime industry, has announced the 800th installation of its GlobeMobile GSM solution.
GlobeMobile offers crew members voice and SMS capabilities at attractive rates. Crew members simply insert the GlobeMobile SIM card into their GSM phone, and within a few minutes they will be able to send and receive voice calls and SMS messages while at sea.
GlobeMobile is integrated within the Globe iFusion system giving crew members prepaid access to voice and SMS messages from mobile phones as well as Email from shipboard computers. The Globe iFusion is a single box that integrates not only the GlobeMobile GSM Solution, but also a Fleet Broadband 250, an ironclad firewall, a satellite gateway, a network router and an IP data compression device. It also provides remote access to the vessel's PC network. Globe iFusion provides digital quality voice, caller ID (incoming and outgoing), free onboard mobile-to-mobile calls, and is the first FleetBroadband terminal to support multiple voice lines. Globe iFusion can also be used through VSAT and Iridium OpenPort terminals.
