Today, Kymeta announced plans to work with Aurum Security GmbH to
bring Kymeta mTenna® high-throughput satellite connectivity
to VIP and civilian armored vehicles (CAV). Now, CAV manufacturers and
integrators will be able to deliver global connectivity, on the go, that
their customers demand, without impacting the natural design lines of
the vehicle. This means anyone from VIPs, to government officials, to
royalty, will have access to high bandwidth connectivity wherever they
go that is invisible, secure, and reliable – even in remote places.
“Kymeta is thrilled to be working with Aurum Security, one of the
leading civilian armored vehicle integrators in the world, known for its
commitment to the highest levels of threat survival, to bring advanced
satellite connectivity solutions to their customers,” said Tom Freeman,
Senior Vice President Land Mobile, Kymeta. “With the Kymeta mTennau7
70 CM terminal, access to connectivity is omnipresent, easy to use, easy
to buy, and linked by secure high-throughput satellite internet,
enhancing the vehicle’s security through better integrated audio, data,
and video communication.”
“The Kymeta mTennau7 mobile satellite terminal will
provide continuous connectivity to our customers for their productivity
and security benefits; furthermore, it is affordable, and does not draw
unwanted attention,” said Andre Uschakow, Managing Director, Aurum
Security. “Terrestrial cellular networks are easily disrupted and hacked
leaving the convoy blind and vulnerable. Satellite systems are
notoriously difficult to compromise, and with Kymeta mTenna technology,
we will be able to deliver secure, high-throughput, satellite-based
internet access.”
Kymeta’s small, lightweight, low power, flat-panel satellite terminal
will fit invisibly between the headliner and roof of a variety of
vehicles to provide reliable internet access anywhere with a view of the
sky. This is important for CAV integrators who want to deliver the
latest technology, without compromising the natural aesthetics of the
vehicle or highlighting which vehicle in a convoy is the communications
hub. It also provides access where terrestrial networks are unavailable,
and eliminates the threat of lost communication during catastrophes
should terrestrial networks go down. Today’s connectivity solutions
limit CAV and VIP vehicle integrators to the crowded cellular networks
that are less secure, easily jammed and compromised, and unable to scale
globally or across international borders.
