VSAT and Starlink Installation at Zeyport Istanbul

All Projects

Satcenter recently completed a certified VSAT and Starlink installation at Zeyport Istanbul, delivering high-performance internet connectivity for vessels docking at this critical port. The hybrid solution ensures continuous, high-speed communication during both offshore navigation and in-port operations, addressing modern maritime connectivity demands.

VSAT and Starlink Installation Scope at Zeyport Istanbul

The goal of this project was to implement a VSAT and Starlink installation that provides uninterrupted internet service through a dual system:

  • VSAT system for traditional satellite communication during sea voyages

  • Starlink terminal for high-speed, low-latency connectivity while moored

Both systems were fully integrated and configured to function in tandem, enabling crew and systems to switch seamlessly between networks based on current location and data needs.

Challenges of Hybrid Installation and Our Smart Solutions

Installing a dual-network internet system in the dynamic environment of Zeyport Istanbul posed several unique challenges:

  • Signal reception optimization amidst heavy commercial traffic

  • Integration with legacy onboard IT systems

  • Smart switching protocol development between Starlink and VSAT

Our engineers worked closely with the Zeyport port authority to overcome these challenges without service disruption, ensuring full operational compatibility.

Benefits of VSAT and Starlink Installation for Vessels

The completed hybrid solution now offers vessels at Zeyport Istanbul the following advantages:

  • High-speed connectivity for data operations, video calls, crew streaming, and remote access

  • Network redundancy, ensuring stable connection even when one signal is interrupted

  • Automatic switching between systems based on bandwidth, latency, and usage requirements

This future-ready system enables port-based and ocean-going vessels to maintain consistent and secure communications throughout their operations.
