The three-part series offers information for those researching, implementing, or determining the business benefits associated with offshore connectivity.

 

Given the increasing importance of broadband connectivity for vessels at sea, KVH Industries, Inc., (Nasdaq: KVHI) is presenting a three-part webinar series, “SATCOM 101,” to help explain the sometimes confusing world of maritime satellite communications.

The three-part series brings forth discussions about selecting SATCOM technology, the benefits of using broadband for a commercial maritime operation, and best practices for managing the implementation of a SATCOM and network management solution. The series is directed toward vessel managers, nautical superintendents, maritime IT professionals, operations managers, C-level management in the shipping industry, and other commercial maritime industry professionals.
