Land communications on the move
Efficient, reliable broadband connectivity aboard trains and vehicles
Starling technology offers the ideal way to get efficient, cost effective broadband connectivity on the move. Our ability to create a compact, lightweight antenna with high bandwidth means installation on small land vehicles and trains is easy and fast.
Ku-Band for Land
Ku-band is the most commonly used technology for broadband connectivity on the land due to its many compelling benefits, including:
- Global broadband coverage
- Worldwide availability on any travel route with no downtime
- Less susceptibility to electrical interference problems than L-band
Our bi-directional satellite-based Ku-band antenna system takes advantage of the extensive Ku-band infrastructure already in place around the world and leverages Starling’s advanced antenna technology and design. The result: the fastest transmit and receive data rates available today – extremely powerful performance up to 40Mbps.
Productivity on High-speed Trains
High-speed train travelers need to connect as much as do people on airplanes. Service providers for trains can:
- Utilize global frequencies with high bit rates to offer more comprehensive, full-featured entertainment and connectivity packages.
- Buy more while paying less. Lower cost-per-megabyte of data means more affordable services for users and higher profit potential for operators.
- Take advantage of high capacity. Offer passengers the ability to communicate with their office, home and friends while they travel.
- Offer a wider range of services, such as VoIP, Live TV, and Mobile phone connections.
Connectivity for Emergency Vehicles
Being able to communicate via a consistent fast connection is critical for emergency vehicles, such as police, fire, and search & rescue.
- Allows rescue and relief teams to respond immediately via a reliable communication solution, helping them save lives.
- Mobile teams working in areas damaged by natural disasters can transmit and receive video, images, and heavy data files and communicate via VoIP for onsite emergency information transfer.
- Police can respond to local service interruptions, natural disasters and sabotage faster.
