ELLIX TOO AND RADIOMARELLI
ISA, International Shipyard Ancona, has recently launched "Ellix
Too", a 47-metre pleasure boat fitted out with the most up-to-date
systems technology has to offer for optimising sailing
performance, the level of well-being on board for guests, etc.
High-tech has also been used for connections and multi-media
entertainment systems with the adoption of a system specially
developed by the Italian Radiomarelli Multimedia in collaboration
with Videoworks, official installer for this Italian apparatus.
The owner and his guests on "Ellix Too" can count on complex yet
easy to use equipment, thanks to user-friendly intuitive
interface. Radiomarelli has therefore fine-tuned a system that
meets various requirements such as that independent control from
any room on board of all the options of the system itself,
including internet connection, vision of films and programmes on
DVD or satellite channels, voice and digital communication,
management and visualisation of information relative to sailing,
high-speed digital connections both land and satellite.
All this
has been made possible thanks to the potential offered by the
central control station developed by Radiomarelli for this very
purpose. This station dialogues with the peripheral equipment in
each single room on the yacht in a completely independent way,
thus being able to guarantee multiple, different link-ups.
Radiomarelli is a global satellite provider able to assist GPRS
and UMTS data exchange, thanks to which speed of traffic is always
high and offers the owner and his guests the possibility of
staying in contact with the shore even for business, regardless of
the yacht's activity. This Italian company is also a Telenor
Satellite Services Provider, specialised in the new communications
standards such as UMTS/3G and satellite IP, the latter offered by
new-generation Inmarsat I-4 for BGAN or Broadband Global Area
Network services. In practice, the platform developed by
Radiomarelli is complex in structure, complete in its range of
communication and entertainment, but at the same time easy to use
thanks to its simple interfaces. Describing the Radiomarelli
system in detail would call for a lot of space, but what we are
interested in having our readers note is its potential for high-
speed communications in all the modes currently available, as well
as the company's flexibility thanks to which it can develop
systems for any kind of yacht and need.
