It's a well documented statistic: over 70% of the earth's surface is covered with water.  Unfortunately, the need for reliable broadband connectivity on the high seas is no less critical than it is on dry land.   From Trans-Atlantic cargo freighters, to oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico, to cruise lines in the Caribbean, reliable voice, data, video and internet is a requirement.  Whether it's ship-to-ship or ship-to-shore connectivity, an iDirect enabled network is ideally suited to meet the demands of any maritime application. The iDirect satellite router is a compact terminal that delivers a satellite modem, IP router, TCP optimization over satellite, 3DES / AES encryption, and QoS / prioritization to keep you connected at sea or on land.  To learn more about our 3000, 5000 and 7000 series of routers, click on the links below.
