It is the second maritime-specific product launched by the company in 2014 and is designed to complement the Orion IP broadband terminal by offering a fully-featured voice and data product with additional functionality built in. The new system is capable of standard IP data transfer at rates up to 444 kbps and asymmetric streaming capability of 16 kbps-384 kbps. Atlas IP is designed as an option for an added-value terminal that can act as a shipboard hub.
