BGAN – Key Benefits
Global coverage, lightweight – truly portable devices, business grade services and support
BGAN delivers seamless network coverage worldwide (except for extreme polar regions). Users can access broadband wherever they go, not just in cities or airports.

Simultaneous voice and broadband data
With a single BGAN device, you can access data applications at broadband speeds and make phone calls at the same time. In a world-first for mobile services, you can also select guaranteed data rates on demand, with a choice of rates to suit your application requirements. And to ensure bandwidth availability, network capacity can be re-directed to areas of heavy usage.
Tariam BGAN now offers ‘on-demand’ guaranteed data rates of up to 384 kbps with BGAN X-Stream, the highest of any portable solution in the world.
Portable
BGAN terminals are compact, lightweight and designed to be carried as easily as a laptop. The smallest BGAN terminal weighs less than a kilo. A fully functional broadband mobile office can be set up and shut down in minutes.
Flexible
BGAN supports the latest IP services, as well as traditional circuit-switched voice and data. Integrating seamlessly with your corporate networks, it supports legacy applications while providing a smooth upgrade path to IP. There are terminals for single users and small teams, which can be connected to a laptop PC via a wired or wireless connection. For added flexibility, the BGAN LaunchPad TM can be customized to your requirements.
Reliable
Tariam’s BGAN service runs on Inmarsat’s latest I-4 satellites. The network capacity of the new fleet is 16 times greater than the previous generation of satellites, delivering a massive boost to an already highly available network.
Easy to use
BGAN is designed for simplicity and ease of use. No specialist technical expertise is required to set up or use the service. It’s also easy to manage costs, because users can track service usage and charges in real-time. The same device can be used worldwide and the user interface is standard across all terminals. Direct connections to the satellite means there are never any compatibility with local telecoms networks.
Secure
Tariam has considerable experience in providing secure communications to military and government customers. BGAN meets these exacting requirements and supports all major VPN products and encryption standards.
