How does the BGAN In-Motion systems work?
Both the Hughes 9250 and the Explorer 527 systems mount on any roof (normally magnetically). When either is plugged into a 12V or 24 Volt power source, they will automatically track and lock on satellite. In vehicle connections are via Ethernet with both systems. The 9250 has a build in wireless access point so that anyone in the vehicle, or around it will be able to connect with 100 feet. The Explorer 527 uses Bluetooth for data access. For those on the edge of the coverage map, trees and mountains may become a factor from having a line of site to the satellite which is lower on the horizon, and service may be irregular. Service prices are identical to other BGAN services offered at Ground Control.
