Fleet Xpress FX

The Inmarsat Fleet Xpress FX is a shipboard satellite communications terminal. It is normally installed at the bridge/communications rack with an exposed-deck satellite antenna. It is designed for long-range ship-shore voice/data and safety communications according to the approved service. The operating principle relies on satellite radio link between the vessel terminal and the subscribed network. The supplied entry gives no additional verified capacity, pressure, power or dimensional figure for this model. Compared with neighbouring models, the relevant differences are satellite service, antenna type, bandwidth, network interfaces and GMDSS approval; these must be confirmed from the installed documentation rather than inferred from the model designation alone. Service and survey attention should concentrate on network log-in, antenna status, cables, power, identity and any distress/safety functions. For exact ratings, dimensions, tolerances, test limits and model-specific settings, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
