What is BGAN?

Throughout the blog I have been using the word BGAN. In case you are not sure what this means, I have decided to explain it in simple terms.

BGAN is Inmarsat's broadband global area network. Inmarsat is a satellite voice and data provider. BGAN was the world's first mobile communications service to provide both voice and broadband data simultaneously through a single, truly portable device on a global basis.

For those who have jobs in remote locations and that need to be mobile, accessing the Internet meant a return to slow dial-up speeds. But when using the BGAN, you get all the benefits of high speed broadband.
