🔍 Key Concepts

• Inmarsat FleetBroadband system architecture – relationship between the IP handset and the below-decks unit/terminal • Difference between IP (packet-switched) services and circuit-switched services on FleetBroadband • Typical features of an Ethernet IP handset (menu control, PoE, signaling over TCP/IP)

💭 Think About

• Think about which feature belongs to the underlying FleetBroadband service, and which features are specific to an IP Ethernet handset connected to the terminal. • Ask yourself: does an IP handset normally carry user voice traffic as a separate circuit, or does it mainly send control/signaling/data to the terminal over the LAN? • Consider whether Power over Ethernet is a common way to power networked handsets on modern GMDSS-capable ships.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which options describe IP/LAN-based behavior between handset and terminal (e.g., TCP/IP, menu control, PoE). • Separate in your mind what the terminal/ship earth station does versus what the handset itself is responsible for. • Before choosing, ask: which statement describes something that happens in the satellite network or terminal, not actually in the IP handset?
