Under the tide of "Internet+", the demand for marine communication is increasing. Recently, based on the Synertone I satellite, Synertone adopted the space-ground integrated satellite communication network solution to successfully deploy onboard broadband satellite communication networks for nine ferries of Shenzhen Xunlong Shipping Co., Ltd., which has achieved seamless Wi-Fi coverage along the entire route for the first time. After this achievement, passengers can connect to the high-speed and stable Internet services even when they are on the sea. It would no longer be difficult to access to the Internet without using any network traffic on the sea.

Shenzhen Xunlong Shipping Co., Ltd., as a subsidiary of China Merchants Group, is a professional shipping company engaged in marine passenger transportation in the region of Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Macau. It is a key marine passenger transportation enterprise in Shenzhen. In the past, since traditional communication methods had certain defects in marine coverage, the communication could not be ensured along the routes of ferries. Neither could ferry passengers access to the Internet , nor could the staff onboard use the unified shipping office system. What's more important, the staff ashore could not know the voyage situations of ferries in time, causing communication difficulties, low management efficiency, and no assurance in case of urgent events. To resolve these problems, Synertone cooperates closely with Shenzhen Sky Sea World Industrial Development Co., Ltd. to provide a ship-borne broadband satellite communication solution for ferries of Xunlong Shipping. The solution uses the high-performance and high-bandwidth satellite resources of "Synertone 1" together with various service transmission terminals to provide stable, reliable, and high-speed Internet and data backhaul services.

After this system is established, the Internet can be accessed through satellite links. In this case, ferry passengers will access to the wireless Internet during their trips to browse news information and web pages, update social media and email services, and receive value-added services pushed by Xunlong Shipping such as online shopping, return ticket reservation, hotel booking through their mobile Apps. What's more important, the shipping center ashore can remotely monitor voyage tracks of ferries in time and check all routes and video monitoring images inside and outside the ferry cabin. The staff at the shipping center can check remote HD monitoring videos also on their mobile terminals such as mobile phones, tablets, and PCs anytime anywhere, which greatly improves security guarantee of ferries.

At present, satellite communication is becoming the main force in marine communication by virtue of its communication quality, fees free from distances, and no restriction by fixed base stations on the ground. With the complete signal coverage of the marine area around the Pearl River Delta, "Synertone 1" can fully meet requirements of onboard application services. As a technology leading large-capacity broadband satellite in the world, "Synertone 1" not only can provide stable and smooth bandwidths for users, but also can meet users' requirements for big-data applications such as HD video transmission and multimedia on-demand services.

The charm of science and technology is to continuously make the impossible possible. Synertone's leading satellite communication solution makes full use of satellite communication advantages such as unrestriction of area and flexible and convenient management of services, which meets Internet access requirements of most passengers and resolves difficulties such as ferry monitoring, management, and guarantee by the shipping center. The ship-borne satellite Internet technology makes ferries not lonely on the sea any more, marking a new era of marine communication.
