Globecomm Maritime Launches Nimbus

Specialist communications provider Globecomm Maritime will use the Posidonia 2014 Exhibition to showcase Nimbus, a scalable platform solution for managing and simplifying ship and shore-based communications.

Key Nimbus features include acceleration, compression and caching for improved web browsing, a built-in email server enabling use of any email client, and embedded PayPal for pre-pay crew access.

Sales & Marketing Director – Europe, Gregor Ross said: “As the bandwidth available to maritime users increases and shipboard networks become more complex, Nimbus permits officers and crew to access a greater range of value added and third party applications, while enabling the owner to retain a practical level of control.

Nimbus supports multiple LANs for business, crew, charterer and M2M applications and enables BYOD for business and crew use.”

On Tuesday June 3, Mr. Ross will join a panel hosted by FutureCare and Yale University School of Medicine to discuss the advantages of telemedicine for crew healthcare in the era of the Maritime Labour Convention.
