## The challenge

Vessels and fishing fleets require voice, text, tracking and operational data far beyond terrestrial coverage. Conventional alternatives can be costly and difficult to install across mixed fleets.

- Deep-sea operations sit beyond cellular and coastal networks.
- Fleet managers need tracking, telemetry and regulatory records.
- Installations must be lightweight, portable and easy to configure.
- Vessel applications and sensors require an open integration path.

## The HiSKY solution

HiSKY’s Smartellite™ terminals connect vessels and onboard devices for voice, text and IoT data over Ka/Ku-band GEO satellites. The open architecture integrates with vessel sensors and fisheries applications. Space Control (NMS) manages the communications network, while vessel data feeds the customer’s fleet-management systems.

- Lightweight terminals with permanent or temporary mounting.
- Voice, text, SOS alerts and vessel telemetry.
- Support for geofencing, fishing logs, tracking and location applications.
- Optional satellite/LTE connectivity through an external LTE router.

## What the solution enables

### Fleet visibility

Remote tracking and management beyond coastal coverage.

### Compliance

Operational and fishing logs can move from vessel to shore.

### Safety

Voice, text and SOS connectivity at sea.

### Integration

One network for sensors, vessel applications and fleet data.
