Ocean carriers and shipping companies utilize satellite communication systems in order to manage their fleet as effectively as possible. Whilst at sea, satellite communication is the only means of exchanging information. Typical applications are voice and data, especially Internet access.
Ships crews can stay in touch with their families and headquarters when away from home and the
mainland. It is even possible to support telemedicine applications, supporting optimal medical care
for the crew wherever they are. On cruise ships, cell networks such as GSM can be installed and
connected to the satellite backbone, providing passengers and crew full access to mobile voice
services.
