CommBox works for Chemikalien Seetransport

Hamburg-based Chemikalien Seetransport is in the process of implementing a new IT/communication system for its fleet of 35 vessels, and following successful testing, it recently started installing the CommBox solution delivered by Virtek Communication. Electrical superintendent, Frank Eggert, explained: “CommBox plays a significant role in the new infrastructure and we chose this system because we feel it is the most flexible and multifunctional ship/shore data communication solution on today's market.

“CommBox provides a comprehensive solution for security, e-mails, automatic file transfers, compression, full IP routing, web acceleration and more, with highly reduced airtime costs. This meets exactly our requirements.” MEC
