Regional Broadband Global Area Network (RBGAN)

Regional Broadband Global Area Network (RBGAN) satellite terminals provide 144kbps internet access (shared bandwidth best effort) for most of Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Indian Ocean, and South America. It is easy to use. Simply connect the RBGAN HNS-9101 modem to your computer using standard Ethernet, USB, or Bluetooth equipment. RBGAN does not support voice service. Both prepaid and standard "pay as you go" service are available from Outfitter Satellite.

ADVISORY: Inmarsat is phasing out RBGAN service after December 31, 2008 to allow more capacity for its newer and more powerful BGAN service. The HNS-9101 RBGAN terminal by Hughes Network Systems is being replaced by the new more powerful HNS-9201 BGAN terminal which offers much higher data rates, streaming IP data, ISDN, and voice service.
