Inmarsat Network Service Device definition

Inmarsat Network Service Device or “INSD” means the shipboard hardware platform needed for Fleet Xpress. The INSD is tightly linked to the Global Xpress shoreside network, which identifies each INSD unit and downloads specific configurations settings to it. Additionally, the INSD controls the routing of data and voice traffic via either the GX or FleetBroadband satellite networks. The default is Global Xpress. Upon detection of interruption of the service over the GX network, the INSD will switch over to FleetBroadband. The INSD will continuously monitor the GX network, and once the network is back to nominal conditions, the INSD will switch the transmission of data and voice traffic back to GX.
