 our legacy TracPhone systems, we offer CommBox, a ship-to-shore network management product that comprises shipboard hardware, a KVH-hosted or privately-owned shore-based hub, and a suite of software applications. Our CommBox offerings are generally integrated into the majority of our VSAT product offerings. We do not generate significant revenue from sales of standalone CommBox hardware. We have also introduced CommBox Edge, a next-generation network and bandwidth management system and related services through our maritime distribution agreement with Kognitive Networks.

We also offer Iridium Certus, a next-generation L-band solution providing pole-to-pole global coverage. We currently offer three terminals compatible with Iridium Certus service – the Thales VesseLINK 200 (data speeds as fast as 176/176 Kbps down/up), the Thales VesseLINK 700 (data speeds as fast as 704/352 Kbps down/up), and the Cobham Sailor 4300 (data speeds as fast as 704/176 Kbps down/up). Optional routing enables onboard data to switch between our KVH ONE hybrid network services and Iridium Certus.

In addition to our TracNet hybrid and TracPhone VSAT-only products and associated airtime services service, we also offer the Viasat/Inmarsat-compatible TracPhone FleetOne product that provides in-motion access to global satellite communications. The FleetOne terminals are manufactured by Cobham and distributed on an original equipment manufacturer basis by us in North America under our TracPhone brand and distributed in other markets on a non-exclusive basis.

In March 2023, we began selling Starlink terminals as companion terminals for new TracNet installations as well as for existing TracNet and TracPhone systems. In September 2023, we became an authorized hardware and airtime reseller for Starlink. We currently offer Starlink on its own and also as a KVH ONE global network companion service. While Starlink offers a fast and lower-cost data pipe, we believe that a KVH and Starlink hybrid deployment offers a more robust solution thanks to our intelligent channel switching, KVH ONE global hybrid network, integrated services, enterprise-grade cybersecurity, and other features.

In January 2024, we announced a distribution agreement with Eutelsat OneWeb that will enable us to expand our multi-orbit hybrid network to include Eutelsat OneWeb’s high-speed, low-latency service. Under the terms of the agreement, KVH will offer Eutels
