A Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) is a small satellite dish used for transmitting and receiving data via satellite. Commonly installed on vessels, rigs, and remote marine stations, VSATs ensure continuous communication in the absence of shore-based infrastructure. These systems can be installed in compact locations and provide services such as internet access, VoIP, remote monitoring, and emergency alerts. In the marine world, VSAT ensures operational continuity and enhances crew morale by offering connectivity even in the most isolated waters.
