MIMO Connect hosted an exclusive launch event of the MIMO GO Case yesterday (23 January) at the charming Balmer Lawn Hotel, where the latest breakthrough in remote connectivity was introduced.

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our latest innovative product, the MIMO GO Case by MIMO Connect, on January 23rd.

To give you an insider's perspective, we asked one of our respected clients currently in Antarctica to test and review the MIMO GO Case . Here’s their detailed experience with this ground-breaking device.

As 2024 draws to a close, we at MIMO Connect find ourselves reflecting on a year filled with growth, camaraderie, and memorable experiences.

Our team, though relatively new to the industry, has embraced every challenge and opportunity with enthusiasm and a shared commitment to excellence. Here, three of our dedicated employees share their highlights from this incredible year.

Before MIMO support, our onboard internet was slow, affecting operations and guest experience. WiFi was stuck at 50Mb, and wired connections struggled to hit 100Mb. MIMO's team identified the issue using the MIMO Dome, boosting speeds past 250Mb by bypassing the ship’s WiFi. The bottleneck was our outdated firewall and switches. MIMO recommended updated components and a more efficient firewall. The transformation improved internet speeds, reliability, and ease of use. MIMO’s proactive approach and technical expertise have elevated our maritime experience.

As we navigate through a world where digital interaction is integral to our daily lives, safeguarding personal and business information against cyber threats has become essential. This October, in recognition of Cybersecurity Month, MIMO Connect brings you seven practical tips to enhance your cybersecurity posture. These tips are crucial not only for yachts but also for shoreside support companies, suppliers, and management.

As we approach World Maritime Day on September 26th, it’s a perfect time to reflect on the critical role that the maritime industry plays in global trade and the economy. This year’s theme, “MIMO Connect: Enhancing Safety Through Connectivity,” highlights the transformative power of connectivity in making maritime operations safer and more efficient.

In the vast expanse of the open sea, connectivity was once a distant dream. However, the advent of MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) technology combined with LEO (Low Earth Orbit) satellite services like Starlink and OneWeb, alongside cellular 4G/5G aggregation, has transformed maritime communication into a robust, high-speed reality.

There’s more to being an ETO/AVIT engineer than meets the eye, the role is most certainly not isolated and purely technical; it’s a multi-faceted role and much of the job requires the candidate to be an excellent communicator and confident around high profiled owners and guests. Do you have what it takes?

The growing cyber security threats to yachts, attributed to wealthy owners, onboard technology, and a lack of awareness, emphasises the need for ETOs and ITOs to address these risks and advocates for crew training, audits, and governance improvements to mitigate vulnerabilities like weak passwords and ransomware attacks. The industry is urged to prioritise awareness, assessment, and protection to bolster its cyber security defence.

Discover essential backup strategies for common AV/IT challenges on yachts in this informative blog post. From ensuring uninterrupted internet connectivity to tackling phone system failures and TV satellite dish issues, learn practical solutions to keep your onboard technology running smoothly.

In the electric bike rental industry, data is the key to success. It powers fleet management, enhances rider experiences, prevents theft, and optimizes maintenance. SIM cards are the unsung heroes that provide real-time connectivity, secure data transfer, and scalability. They empower rental companies to transform their operations and lead the way in the urban transportation revolution.

In an era where sustainability is at the forefront of global concerns, the renewable energy industry is experiencing a remarkable transformation. From wind farms to solar arrays, these sources of clean energy are becoming increasingly prevalent and vital for our planet's future. Yet, what truly propels the renewable energy sector forward is not just the impressive sight of towering wind turbines or glimmering solar panels—it's the data generated and harnessed by these technologies.

Mobile technology, evolving from 2G to 4G/LTE, has become accessible to billions worldwide. 4G set speed standards, but LTE often replaced it, yet advancements continued through LTE-A or LTE+. Key developments, such as MIMO technology and Carrier Aggregation (CA), have enhanced bandwidth and speed. As 5G approaches, it offers promise but remains in development. Many "5G" claims today are rooted in LTE improvements. Navigating coastal and offshore areas, understanding these advancements is vital for reliable high-speed connectivity.
