GMDSS

Leading the GMDSS safety evolution

Overview

GMDSS was fully implemented by the IMO in 1999. Since then, technology has evolved significantly, yet for much of the mandated safety equipment there’s been little change.

With the IMO now embracing digital solutions, Intellian is leading this evolution and developing a range of new GMDSS equipment including VHF and MF/HF radios, in addition to Safety Display Terminals (SDT) and NAVTEX. Our focus in defining and developing this new series of GMDSS products is robustness, reliability and
user friendliness. In times of need, you need to trust your equipment and clear, simple usability under pressure is key.

With the addition of GMDSS products to the Intellian portfolio in 2025, it will mean Intellian can support a complete connectivity solution on board. One brand to empower connectivity across safety, VSAT, L-band, LEO and Flat Panels, delivering consistent customer experience, reliability and innovation to fleets around the world.
