SEVSAT is a maritime VSAT solution from Ship Equip. A key component of the SEVSAT solution is the stabilised antenna, of which Ship Equip has delivered more than 1,000 on a worldwide basis.<\/p>\n
The trawler \u201cHuginn VE-55\u201d is based in Vestmanna Island in Iceland, and has installed SEVSAT 128Kb up\/128Kb down and two telephone lines.<\/p>\n
Willum Anderson spent two years checking the different providers of seaborne communication before he decided on SEVSAT from Ship Equip.<\/p>\n
\u201cNew technology together with quality components and a guaranteed bandwidth were the main reasons we selected Ship Equip,\u201d says Willum.<\/p>\n
\u201cBefore we had no real communication outside of 30-40Nm, except for the very expensive satellite telephone which we used very little. Now we have cheap telephone lines and internet for everyone which lets us exchange e-mail, read news, check and order spare parts, get weather forecasts and much more any time of the day and, for instance, with no limitation on talking on the phone.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOur experience with Ship Equip as a supplier is very good. When we had a tuning problem it was quickly dealt with and the fault was fixed,\u201d he explains.<\/p>\n
