The Starlink Maritime Kit consists of one or two Flat High-Performance Starlink antennas (57.5x51.1cm) with a wedge mount. The Starlink Maritime Premium Kit consists of two Starlink antennas for redundancy and obstruction mitigation. The Starlink antenna and power supply are water jet and dust-resistant (IP56). Up to 6 Starlink antennas can be combined on a vessel or rig to provide a 900/60 Mbps service.
When priority access data volume cap is reached, the Starlink service is throttled to 1/1 Mbps unless additional Priority Access is purchased. Throttled services can result in degradation or unavailability of certain services or applications, such as streaming video, gaming, or other bandwidth-intensive applications.
Starlink service doesn’t come with a Service Level Agreement, instead Starlink has set goals it aims to achieve
Service package | Service availability | Latency from vessel to teleport | Expected download | Expected upload |
Premium | >99% | <99ms | 60-250 Mbps | 10-30 Mbps |
Starlink Maritime services coverage is expanding rapidly now covering Europe, the USA, the Gulf of Mexico, the Atlantic crossing between Europe and North and South America, South America, Australia, New Zealand, and part of South East Asia.
Coverage in territorial waters depends on the licensing status of Starlink in the country.
