With Sat-Fi2 RAS, a satellite Wi-Fi hotspot is created so that
users can stay connected while they are on the move. Ideal for
users in a vehicle, a fishing boat or pleasure craft, or those who

remote antenna options – a magnetic mountable antenna and a pole
mountable marine antenna that addresses the demand for satellite
communications on the water.

to eight users can connect any Wi-Fi-enabled iOS or Android device
to Sat-Fi2 RAS for satellite-enabled email and SMS text message
functionality, voice calls, access to the web, social media and
