[Via Satellite 08-30-2016] Inmarsat has appointed Satcom Global as a Value Added Reseller (VAR) for Global Xpress (GX) covering the maritime and enterprise markets. Satcom Global is a distributor of mobile satellite communications, serving a varied customer base from hubs across the Americas, Asia, Australia, Europe and the Middle East. In preparation for delivery of the extension of their service portfolio, Satcom Global has trained its in-house network of engineers to be accredited to carry out GX installations across the globe.

Satcom Global is one of Inmarsat’s largest FleetBroadband (FB) partners. The companies anticipate that many of Satcom Global’s existing FleetBroadband customers, along with a sizeable number of XpressLink vessels, will provide a firm customer base to migrate onto Fleet Xpress. The appointment as a GX Enterprise VAR also serves to expand Satcom Global’s portfolio of products for remotely located, land-based users. The company further anticipates strong interest from news broadcast customers seeking connectivity to meet the growing demands for live newsgathering.
