Description
Reliable Satellite Communications on the Move
The Hughes 9450L-C11 is designed to keep vehicles connected while traveling through areas where terrestrial communications are unavailable or unreliable. Its fully autonomous tracking antenna automatically acquires and follows the Inmarsat BGAN satellite, eliminating the need for manual pointing and allowing personnel to remain focused on the task at hand.
The terminal supports shared IP data speeds of up to 464 kbps and streaming IP services up to 128 kbps, making it suitable for remote office connectivity, telemetry, asset monitoring, secure data transfer, and operational reporting. It is compatible with both standard BGAN and BGAN M2M SIM cards, providing flexibility for a wide variety of deployments.
Designed for Ethernet-Based Networks
The 9450L-C11 is intended for organizations that prefer to manage wireless networking separately. Instead of incorporating built-in Wi-Fi, the terminal provides four Ethernet ports that allow direct connection to computers, external routers, firewalls, network switches, or other communications equipment.
This simplified approach makes the Lite model particularly well suited for professional vehicle installations where existing networking infrastructure is already in place or where greater control over the local network is required.
Built for Demanding Mobile Environments
Designed for continuous field use, the 9450L-C11 features a rugged tracking antenna with an IP56-rated enclosure that helps protect against dust, water, vibration, and harsh weather conditions. The system is engineered for permanent vehicle installations and operates across a wide temperature range, allowing dependable performance in challenging environments.
Configuration and monitoring are handled through the integrated web interface, while remote management capabilities simplify administration across multiple deployed vehicles.
Ideal for Professional Fleet Applications
The Hughes 9450L-C11 is commonly deployed by organizations that require dependable mobile satellite connectivity for vehicles operating beyond traditional network coverage.
Typical applications include:
- Emergency response and disaster recovery
- Government and public safety vehicles
- Utility and infrastructure maintenance
- Oil, gas, mining, and environmental operations
- Mobile command and fleet communications
Simple, Reliable Mobile Connectivity
The 9450L-C11 delivers the core capabilities of the Hughes 9450 platform in a streamlined configuration focused on IP networking. By removing integrated wireless and voice interfaces, it provides an efficient solution for customers who need dependable Ethernet connectivity and prefer to integrate their own networking equipment as part of a complete mobile communications system.
