Installation scope
Hardware revisions differ. A good installation starts with the actual terminal, manufacturer instructions and vessel layout—not an assumed universal mount or cable.
Evaluate the actual kit revision, clear sky view, radar and other equipment, vibration, mount structure, maintenance access and vessel use before a location is selected.
Plan protected cable runs, bend radius, deck penetrations, strain relief, weather sealing and a serviceable route into the vessel.
Check the supplied hardware's voltage and power requirements, conversion where appropriate, breaker/circuit protection and available vessel capacity.
Connect supported Ethernet/router hardware to the boat's existing network and Wi-Fi plan; keep safety-critical navigation functions appropriately isolated.
The vessel is the system
We assess power and network health, confirm the physical installation and test supported local connectivity before handover. The vessel owner retains control of the Starlink account, subscription, plan and credentials; activation and service coverage are governed by Starlink.
