Rivada's Outernet, the world's first global
private network, is key for Superyacht connectivity
Highlights:
- Rivada is launching a constellation of 600 ultra-secure,
networked low-earth orbit satellites
- Unique network combines satellite and terrestrial capabilities
for ultra-low latency, high speed, unparalleled security, and true
global coverage
- Serving the maritime, telecom, enterprise, energy and
government services markets
MUNICH and PALMA, Spain, Nov. 21,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Rivada Space Networks and
e3 Systems, a leading maritime Superyacht integrator and
connectivity provider, have signed an MoU to provide innovative,
fast, secure and seamless communications for the Superyacht sector.
Rivada has now lined up more than US$13
billion of business globally for its unique LEO network.
High-speed connectivity is no longer a luxury but a
necessity for superyacht owners and their guests. The demand for
higher bandwidth has been driven by activities that necessitate
substantial volumes of data, such as streaming 4K/8K media
content, video conferencing, cloud-based software, and heavy file
transfers. More than ever, superyachts require a secure
future-proof digital infrastructure solution that provides the same
"office-like or at-home" user experience, regardless of location.
Rivada's Outernet can offer a competitive advantage in maritime
connectivity by enabling new networking capabilities and services
including broadcast, multicast and global corporate networking
services delivered through multi-gigabit bi-directional
performance, combined with worldwide reach. Resilient connectivity
for continuous communication and data transfer will be uniform and
secure throughout, from the middle of the ocean or the desert to
downtown in a big city.
As the first unified, ubiquitous, global communications network,
Rivada's Outernet is transformative. A global low-latency
point-to-point network of 600 low earth orbit (LEO) satellites, it
is a unique next-generation constellation combining inter-satellite
laser links with advanced onboard processing and routing to create
a ubiquitous optical mesh network in space. This "orbital network,"
in which data stays in space and on-network from origin to
destination, creates an ultra-secure, private satellite network
with pole-to-pole coverage, offering end-to-end latencies much
lower than terrestrial fiber over long distances. And by routing
traffic on a physically separated network in space, it provides a
layer of defense to address the vulnerabilities associated with
traditional subsea cable data infrastructure.
Stuart Castell, Group Managing
Director, e3 Systems, said: "We are experiencing increased demand
for high-bandwidth connectivity from our customers, who are looking
for enterprise-grade performance and security. Rivada's Outernet
architecture is fundamentally different from all others: It is
'gateway-less, 'ie data passes from satellite to satellite without
touching any land infrastructure, providing true global
point-to-point, super-fast, enterprise grade communication. He
added: "The Rivada Outernet is the equivalent of having a fast
fiber connection at sea. It is the ideal solution to future-proof
digital infrastructure for superyachts and to provide
enterprise-grade, secure bandwidth with high availability and
guaranteed service levels that underpin our business for premium
customers."
Declan Ganley, CEO of Rivada,
said: "We are seeing a huge uptake in our business in multiple
market sectors across the globe, underlining the growing appetite
for our unique space-based network. The Rivada Outernet's ability
to meet the requirements of maritime connectivity providers in
terms of security, latency, capacity, and coverage means users can
do everything at sea that they do at home and in the office, which
is a game-changer for the sector. Our completely new type of LEO
constellation will provide transformative next-generation
infrastructure for secure, resilient and seamless communications,
anywhere on the planet."

any organization that needs to securely share data between widely
distributed sites. The first satellite launch is set for
2025, with global service available in 2026.
