The market for systems consists of land earth stations for the various Inmarsat services. The land earth stations are connected to the terrestrial network, providing the interface between the satellite system on the one hand and the public switched telephone network, cellular networks and the Internet on the other.
The products include Inmarsat-C and SBS land earth stations. In addition, Thrane & Thrane is currently developing the so-called RAN land earth stations. These represent the land earth station element of Inmarsat’s BGAN satellite system to be launched later in 2005.
