The challenge
Remote workers across industries operate in challenging environments to perform crucial tasks such as well-head maintenance, mining machinery repairs, or addressing outages on remote grids. Working in some of the world's most isolated regions, they play essential roles in ensuring company functionality. However, these remote areas often lack reliable cellular connectivity, making communications for sending data diagnostics, seeking technical guidance, or requesting medical help impossible at times.
The inability to send data diagnostics could lead to undetected pipeline issues. Without real-time technical guidance, flying in an expert becomes necessary for repairs. The outcome of not being able to call for medical help could be far worse.
Our solution
To help ensure you stay connected, you need the most reliable land connectivity solution. Viasat’s Go-anywhere Pro provides data and voice connectivity and works virtually everywhere. Created for safety services and trusted by militaries globally, Go-anywhere Pro uses Viasat's L-band satellite constellation. This provides up to 99.9% network availability, in any continental location aside from the far poles, even in adverse weather conditions such as heavy rain.
With Go-anywhere Pro, you can supply your remote teams with a portable, dependable, and affordable way of transferring data and staying in contact. Go-anywhere Pro allows remote workers to connect quickly, without the need for any technical expertise. It also comes in a range of compact, affordable, rugged, and highly portable terminals. All you need to do is point your Go-anywhere Pro at the satellite to produce a Wi-Fi hotspot you can use to connect to your laptop or smart device. This enables the use of the internet for applications such as video collaboration, web browsing, email, and voice.
Our Go-anywhere Pro services can also support other smart devices, such as wearable headsets. With Standard IP data speeds of up to 492kbps and streaming speeds from 32bps to 800kbps, these services can help bring subject matter experts from thousands of miles away to the root of the problem. This ensures remote technical workers can respond to issues, quickly, efficiently, and safely.
You can also use our Voice & PTT services to help ensure remote technical workers can stay in touch.
