NSSL and Telemar Scandinavia have announced a joint partnership for their Maritime Broadband Services, with NSSL's Cruise IP and Telemar's Seacall services now both using the same high-quality DVBS2-RCS broadband platform.

The two companies have also jointly launched a new DVBS2-RCS Service at the Nittedal Land Earth Station (LES) in Norway and integrated it into their existing DVBS2 networks, extending coverage for both NSSL and Telemar Maritime and Land Customers.

In conjunction with this, NSSL and Telemar have also taken over the existing DVB-RCS customers from Vizada.

By extending the DVBS2-RCS network, NSSL and Telemar now offers one of the world's most extensive KU maritime broadband coverage areas, providing seamless service across the Pacific, Mediterranean, Caribbean, all Europe and the Middle East including the Persian Gulf, and the Red Sea.

This means that Cruise IP and Seacall vessels are able to easily move between the ocean regions whilst using the same service levels, pricing and full end-to-end 24/7 guaranteed technical support.

Sally Ray, Sales Director for NSSL commented "This partnership offers tremendous value for NSSL and Telemar customers,, it allows both companies to combine our technical expertise. An immediate benefit of this cooperation is NSSL's Cruise IP Tracker which enables NSSL and Telemar to remotely track vessels, while monitoring the broadband system in real time."
