Inmarsat's NexusWave Service Achieves 340 Mbps Connection Speed in Maritime Operations

Inmarsat Maritime, a part of Viasat, has demonstrated maximum download speeds of 330–340 megabits per second (Mbps) and maximum upload speeds of 70–80 Mbps in real-world trials of its NexusWave service developed for the maritime sector. During these tests, average download speeds reached 120–150 Mbps and average upload speeds of 20–45 Mbps, with network availability on vessels using the NexusWave service exceeding 99.99%.

NexusWave combines multiple subnetworks into a single unified connection, unlike the load balancing approach typically used by hybrid connectivity solutions, which provide bandwidth from the best available subnetwork. This approach allows applications to benefit from the total capacity of all available networks rather than remaining tied to a single network. Through its unique network bonding technology, NexusWave delivers superior speeds along with high reliability and redundancy.

In real-world trials, the quality of a video conference was virtually unaffected by the availability or quality of any single subnetwork. NexusWave dynamically adjusts traffic routing to provide seamless and uninterrupted service. This enhances operational efficiency in the maritime sector and meets crew communication needs.

Inmarsat Maritime President Ben Palmer stated, "The ability to achieve 340 Mbps speeds stems from the power of the network bonding technology within NexusWave: no individual subnetwork in the package can achieve these speeds on its own. With NexusWave, Inmarsat's maritime customers secure the capacity of multiple solutions with the convenience of a single provider."

NexusWave delivers "connected confidence" by offering unlimited data, global coverage, and enterprise-grade firewall protection. Additionally, Inmarsat Maritime experts provide round-the-clock technical support to customers worldwide. As a unified service, the solution guarantees managed performance levels regardless of the vessel's location or requirements, and provides complete transparency regarding total cost of ownership.

Looking ahead, NexusWave plans to further increase combined connection speeds by integrating next-generation ultra-high-capacity, high-speed service following the deployment of ViaSat-3 Ka-band service. This will mean higher data speeds and more reliable connectivity for the maritime sector.
