The
maritime consumer markets can now enjoy content, social media, and
voice solutions through Nexus, a next-generation hybrid network
solution by MTN Communications that combines satellite and terrestrial wireless capabilities.
Nexus can also deliver computing, caching, and security
infrastructure.
According
to MTN President and CEO Errol Olivier, cruise operators were making
significantly increasing demands for connectivity and content due to
a parallel increase in the communications required by their
passengers and crew. Cruise passengers and crew have shown increasing
desire to stream video, update their social media pages, and share
vacation images with friends or family members aboard the same
vessel.
In
response, MTN created the Nexus hybrid solution for the Company's
cruise line partners. The
Company drew upon its 30 years of experience in delivering connectivity
and content to maritime vessels in locations that are out of reach
from terrestrial wireless and wireline networks. The Nexus network
combines the best of satellite and land-based wireless networks to
ensure continuous and fast connectivity.
