Inmarsat managed VSAT service.
Inmarsat Fleet Express is Inmarsat’s managed maritime VSAT service, marketed as Fleet Xpress: Ka-band Global Xpress (the I-5 constellation) for high throughput with automatic L-band FleetBroadband failover for continuity. The two names point to the same service; the correct trademark is Fleet Xpress. It bundles committed information rates with a shared bandwidth pool and is delivered as a single managed package covering crew connectivity, vessel IoT, and operational applications, with the L-band path maintaining a link when the Ka beam degrades.
