The services are leveraged on a THOR-7 Ka high-performance satellite that provides coverage across Europe and in the northern regions where Color Line operates.

"Telenor Maritime is a mobile company at sea, placing the mobile in the centre of all we do."

Upon completion of the installation, Color Line will be able to offer full Wi-Fi coverage on its vessels by the first quarter of next year.

Telenor Maritime CEO Frode Støldal said: “Telenor Maritime is a mobile company at sea, placing the mobile in the centre of all we do.

“With our connectivity platform, we take full end-to-end responsibility for connecting the applications; the access layer with the on-board mobile and Wi-Fi systems; and the backhaul from Ka/Ku satellite and land-based mobile broadband from our network of global operators.
