FELCOM-16 Inmarsat-C GMDSS
Furuno FELCOM-16 Inmarsat-C GMDSS is a shipboard Inmarsat satellite communications terminal. It is normally installed with an antenna above deck and indoor terminal, modem or communication units connected to the bridge or vessel network. Its primary purpose is to provide long-range satellite voice, data, safety or messaging services according to the installed terminal type. Compared with terrestrial marine radio, satellite service depends on terminal registration, antenna visibility, modem configuration and network availability. The supplied record already contains the available concise model or rating information, so those existing figures are not duplicated here and no additional meaning is inferred from the model code. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
