BGAN (pronounced ‘Be-gan’) is short for ‘broadband global area network”. Basically, BGAN terminals are the size of a laptop and connect to the internet through a satellite connection no matter where you are in the world.
There are about 18 kinds of BGAN terminals, most of which are small enough to fit inside a laptop case. They all do pretty much the same thing – high-speed internet and phone.
Connecting your computer to a BGAN terminal is done with a simple Ethernet cable or, as with some terminals, through a Wi-Fi connection – great for when you want to be inside while the terminal is outside, or you have a smart device where Wi-Fi is required.
A Clear View of the Sky
To connect to the satellite, a BGAN terminal must have line-of-sight to one of the four BGAN satellites, meaning there can’t be any trees, walls, or buildings between the terminal and the satellite. Often, a BGAN terminal is placed outside but in can be inside and point through a window if the satellite can be seen.
If you’re within the colored regions, BGAN service will operate on the same service plan with Ground Control.
These satellites (owned by Inmarsat) are in stationary orbit around the planet, so no matter where the BGAN is, it can connect. Only the extreme polar regions are unable to connect because the satellites are below the horizon and can’t be seen.
BGAN Voice Calls
Each BGAN SIM card is issued an ‘international’ phone number and incoming calls are free – however, the calling party is charged for making an international call. BGAN voice calling is superior to handheld satellite phones because the antenna is much larger and, unlike some satellite phones that connect with moving satellites, BGAN connects to a single stationary satellite avoiding call drops in increasing the overall call quality.
BGAN terminals don’t require an external power source for idle operation with an average of 36 hours per charged battery. These systems are field proven and have been invaluable communications tools to thousands of professionals and organizations worldwide for years.
