About Inmarsat
Inmarsat operates the world's leading satellite network for mobile satellite communications services - covering maritime, land mobile, vehicle and aeronautical services.
Nera has been the chief supplier of satellite terminals and gateways for the Inmarsat systems since its conception in 1979.
Satellite operator
Inmarsat operates a constellation of geostationary satellites that extend mobile phone, fax and data communications to every part of the world, except the poles, offering an unrivalled coverage, reliability and versatility.
End-users can dial into the international telephone network and send data over the Internet at any time, simply by connecting to an Inmarsat satellite.
Global services
Inmarsat-based services and solutions, including the mobile satellite terminals used to connect to its satellites, are sold by a network of hundreds of Inmarsat Partners in more than 80 countries around the world. Inmarsat is the wholesaler, the provider of the satellite airtime.
Inmarsat came into being as an IGO in 1979 to provide global safety and other communications for the maritime community. It now supports links for phone, fax and data communications to more than 287,000 ship, vehicle, aircraft and other mobile users.
