LUXEMBOURG--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun. 4, 2018--
Navarino, the maritime industry’s leading technology company, announced
today that it will add maritime connectivity services from Intelsat S.A.
to its portfolio of connectivity solutions.
Under the agreement, Navarino will introduce innovative Intelsat
satellite services delivered from the award-winning IntelsatOne Flex
platform, a global managed service designed to optimize bandwidth
allocations and provide flexible coverage where it is needed most. With
this service set to be introduced to customers in Q3 2018, Navarino CEO
Dimitris Tsikopoulos is expecting a high level of interest in the new
possibilities that the Intelsat/Navarino collaboration will bring.
“Intelsat is one of the satellite industry’s most experienced and
respected providers,” he said. “We are excited to begin working with
them to bring multi-layered HTS global coverage and pioneering new
Ku-band offerings to the maritime marketplace, offerings which have the
potential to be really innovative in terms of how connectivity is
packaged and delivered. Navarino has a vast amount of experience in the
maritime satcom market. We have witnessed first-hand how increasingly
critical connectivity is as an enabler for managing vessel networks and
IT infrastructure. Simultaneously, we have also seen that there are
certain sectors of our marketplace which are looking for highly
specialized types of connectivity that the current market cannot cater
to. Our collaboration with Intelsat will enable us to address this wide
variety of maritime communications requirements by delivering a
tailored, high-throughput global connectivity solution.”
“Maritime customers are demanding a robust, flexible and resilient
platform that supports their growing business needs and meets the
demands of vessel and crew,” said Intelsat’s Mark Rasmussen, Vice
President and General Manager, Mobility. “With Intelsat’s Globalized
Network and IntelsatOne Flex services, Navarino can tailor solutions to
meet customers’ requirements and offer more differentiated products. The
addition of IntelsatOne Flex capabilities will add a level of service,
coverage and throughput that has historically not been available in the
marketplace, and customers will see that translate into real operational
improvements that will positively impact the bottom line.”
