Full global coverage for all I4 Inmarsat service

2009.02.26

The Inmarsat BGAN, FleetBroadband and SwiftBroadband services provided by the Inmarsat-4 (I-4) F1 spacecraft were successfully restored on Tuesday, 24 February, marking the end of the final outage required to complete the transition of the I-4 satellite repositioning. The new global I-4 satellite regions are: ?I-4 Americas - at 98 degrees West ?I-4 EMEA - at 25 degrees East ?I-4 Asia-Pacific - at 143.5 degrees East. Users of Inmarsat? BGAN service in the region need to re-point their antennas directly at the new in-orbit location of the I-4 F1 (I-4 Asia-Pacific) satellite at 143.5 degrees East. The new version of BGAN LaunchPad can be used to help pinpoint its new position. Users of Inmarsat? FleetBroadband and SwiftBroadband services will automatically lock on to the new satellite, and need take no further action. However, some BGAN and FleetBroadband terminals may require software upgrades or other user intervention. End-users should contact Arion Communication.
