Buzz Marine has added a new internal unit to its range: the Hubba. This unit can be located in the cabin and will provide a wi-fi broadband capability throughout the vessel. The Hubba is not water resistant like its big brother, the HubbaX, and should not be located on deck but has the advantage of being free standing and mobile. It can therefore be easily removed from the boat and used ashore.

Using unique patented aerial technology and 3G networks via an internal SIM card the Hubba provides ADSL equivalent broadband speeds, up to four times the connectivity of an internal SIM in an iPad or laptop mobile connector. The Hubba is powered by the vessels 12v system or standard mains power point with the 12v DC powerpack and is therefore extremely versatile. It can be set up and ready to use in seconds. Perfect for onshore accommodation then transferred to the boat for the day at sea, the user never needs to be out of touch, the Hubba will continue to provide broadband connection up to 20 miles offshore, continually seeking the best signal.

The free-standing, compact Hubba can be located anywhere in a cabin which has glazed windows. Powered by 12v DC power, the marine broadband units are protected by industry standard security protocol (WEP, WPA, WPA2).
