Shipboard Satellite TV System on DONG GUI 18: An Oasis of Entertainment and Information in the Ocean
Long voyages at sea are often accompanied by loneliness and monotony. For the crew of DONG GUI 18 of Guangxi Wuzhou Tongzhou Shipping Transportation Co., Ltd., their sea life has been different due to the installation of a shipboard satellite TV system.
I. Project Background
The ships of Guangxi Wuzhou Tongzhou Shipping Transportation Co., Ltd. often travel in various seas around the world. Crews stay on the ship for months at a time. During the long voyage, the lack of entertainment and timely access to news and information became an important factor affecting the physical and mental health of the crew and their motivation to work.
II. Project Implementation
After much research and evaluation, Guangxi Wuzhou Tongzhou Shipping Transportation Co., Ltd. chose the professional shipboard satellite TV system provided by Philscom. The system is equipped with a high-sensitivity satellite receiving antenna, which can accurately lock the satellite signals, even in bad sea conditions with the ship shaking and bumping, and can also receive satellite TV signals stably. Its satellite TV receiver has a powerful decoding capability, supporting a variety of video formats and audio standards, and can receive program signals from many famous TV stations around the world, covering news, sports, movies, TV dramas, variety shows, and other content.
To ensure the compatibility and easy use of the system, Philscom has also customized a user-friendly TV terminal and operation interface for the ship. Crew members can easily switch channels, adjust the volume, and search for programs through a simple and intuitive remote control or the ship's intelligent terminal devices, just as convenient as using a regular TV at home. At the same time, the system is also equipped with signal strength monitoring and automatic error correction, which can quickly and automatically adjust the system in the event of signal interference or interruption, minimizing the occurrence of program playback lag or interruption.
III. Project Summary
Through the installation of the shipboard satellite TV system, Guangxi Wuzhou Tongzhou Shipping Transportation Co., Ltd. has successfully created a maritime entertainment and information oasis for the crew. This initiative not only effectively improves the crew's working and living environment and increases their job satisfaction, but also positively contributes to the overall operation and management of the ship.
Philscom will continue to optimize the shipboard satellite TV service to bring more entertainment and convenience to the crew's life and work on the vast ocean, and make the shipboard satellite TV an indispensable and warm companion during the ocean voyage.
