Last May, Network Integrity Assurance Technologies (NIAT) Sdn. Bhd. successfully completed a sea trial of the Inmarsat C system with dual antennas for an important client as part of their comprehensive communication upgrade project.
During the sea trial, the Inmarsat C system was rigorously tested by the technical team to validate its performance in real-world operations.
The system demonstrated full functionality, maintaining strong communication connections with shore-based stations, enabling seamless data exchange, and enhancing overall situational awareness on board throughout the entire sea trial.
The successful sea trial demonstrated that the newly installed communication system fulfilled all operational needs and client’s requirements. The vessels are now equipped with highly reliable and efficient satellite communication system ready for future operations.
Prior to the sea trial, the technical team installed some key equipment for the Inmarsat C technology. The set up was to optimize satellite communication, ensuring stable and reliable data transmission even under sea conditions. The installation was completed within a span of three days with the valiant efforts of the technical team.
The deployment of the Inmarsat C technology marked a significant advancement in vessel connectivity for the defense sector’s military vessels.
