IEC Telecoms new solution addresses the challenge of reliable, affordable connectivity at sea, offering tailored airtime plans and network management tools.
IEC Telecom has developed a versatile solution designed to provide yacht owners with maximum flexibility. IEC Telecoms new network management ecosystem will enable vessels to benefit from customised airtime packages tailored to their specific requirements. The company will showcase its connectivity solutions at Metstrade 2024 (November 19 to 24).
Beyond flexible pricing, IEC Telecoms advanced systems provide real-time visibility over traffic
consumption and optimise each Mb performance with features like credit rollover. Automated
notifications alert customers to unusual usage patterns, preventing unauthorised connections and
potential losses. IEC Telecoms 360 Starlink portfolio includes L-band backup and a suite of value-added
services, known as OneGate Value-adds, ensuring business continuity and high-quality service even
when primary connections are unavailable.
IEC Telecoms network management solutions elevate the onboard leisure experience, offering
everything from live concert streaming to individual VoIP calls. The Starlink portfolio provides yacht
owners with seamless, home-like connectivity, whether cruising or anchored and allows for easy
network adjustments via IEC Telecoms proprietary OptiView portal. Designed for ultimate flexibility, these solutions come with an advanced guest voucher system that enables on-demand connectivity, with vouchers generated directly on board.
Commenting on the new system, Gwenaël Lohéac, President Europe and Africa at IEC Telecom said: IEC Telecoms philosophy centers on customer-centric solutions. With over 400 yachts equipped with our Starlink-based solutions, IEC Telecom gains first-hand insight into the latest market developments. As the yachting industry booms with rising demand for luxury marine tourism and increased spending by high-net-worth individuals, weve introduced flexible connectivity packages that meet diverse needsfrom small leisure boats to superyachts. In addition, we have expanded a range of our value-added services to ensure business continuity and advanced network management on board. Were excited to introduce our comprehensive portfolio at Metstrade.
